And, I get a break :) We use to share it evenly, when I worked, but I know my DH loves doing baths. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-262055 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 07:42:58 +0000 Sammyfab 262055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH does the bath, hands LO off to me to do baby massage, them DH gives LO the bottle and puts him to bed. I'm right there to say night night though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-262036 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 07:24:50 +0000 purrpletulips 262036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I both do and always have. Before I stopped nursing, I would nurse her while he read a story then he'd either sit with us while she finished nursing or give her a kiss and go take care of the dog. Now that she is no longer nursing, she sits between us on her big girl bed and he reads the story. We're hoping to keep this routine pretty much the same when LO#2 arrives although I will probably be nursing LO#2 during story time.</p> <p>It's nice because DD will go down pretty easily for both of us although I often have some problems with DH isn't home because she misses him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-262005 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 06:45:35 +0000 heffalump 262005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We rotate every other night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-261987 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 04:24:41 +0000 Honeybee 261987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH puts DD down while take care of DS on the nights he's home at bedtime. I think we're going to start switching off, though. I miss DD! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-261639 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 20:48:42 +0000 erwoo 261639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Husband with #1 and me with #2. Only b/c I have to nurse #2 one last time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-261634 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 20:47:16 +0000 Rubies 261634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do *BUT* because I no longer nurse LO at bedtime, hubs is able to put her down. He's done it twice in the last 2 weekends. But during the week, it's always me because hubs doesn't get home from work in time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-261624 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 20:44:26 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 261624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, although DH does bath time and then hands him off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-261473 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 19:55:28 +0000 brownie 261473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband.

I put LO down.<br /> Should be interesting when we have 2... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-your-los-down#post-261460 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 19:49:32 +0000 mrbee 261460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These days, Bee and I usually divvy up the kids: I'll put down Charlie, and she'll put down Olive. Whoever doesn't put down Charlie does the prep work for bedtime: laying out clothes, readying the bed, etc.</p> <p>Lately Charlie has been really into his mom, so sometimes he will insist on having her put him down and order me to leave. Oh, the heartbreak.</p> <p>Who puts your LOs down? </p>
