This will probably change a little when i go back to work but i will still do more nursing. I think that is fine because it is good for one of us to be well rested! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70687 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 23:39:11 +0000 sulli301 70687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If she just needs some white noise or her seahorse (fisher price musical seahorse like the glow worms) DH will but if she needs to nurse, I do :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70684 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 22:51:23 +0000 redboots 70684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm the one with the boobs so its me for now. Although DH will get up to check in on him if we dont think his cries are food related. Lo is only feeding 2x a night so its not that bad anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70680 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 22:34:00 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 70680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me. Also because of the boob factor. We both works, but he works more. We're usually down to once a night, so it isn't that bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70674 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:54:38 +0000 lemondrop 70674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Raises hand, then yawns. </p> <p>I nurse and only work a few hours a week now that Cam is here. Luckily we only have 2 night feedings for now- around midnight and again around 3am. Most of the time I'm back in bed within 30 minutes- except for last night when we passed out on the recliner for about 4 hours accidently.</p> <p>My husband will get up if I need help, but since he works full time, I let him sleep for the most part. When I work he has bottles of pumped milk so I get a little more rest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70661 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:14:05 +0000 chopsuey 70661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I nurse and am a sahm so I get her at night if she wakes </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70293 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 12:54:11 +0000 heffalump 70293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She usually sleeps 12 hours now. But if she does wake up in the middle of the night, hubby gets her. I get migraines so I need my sleep, and hubby understands that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70290 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 12:52:57 +0000 mrs. wagon 70290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: Hehe... luckily for Rob Sr. RJ dropped his middle of the night feedings pretty early! Once that happened I started pumping just once a day, before we went to bed around 11pm or midnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70289 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 12:52:34 +0000 MsMamaBear 70289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, she only wakes up once or twice now, depending on how hungry she gets. He'll let her get to a cry, when I don't let her get that far.LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70284 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 12:50:22 +0000 daniellemybelle 70284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tina: I think its really cute that you always got up together! I would probably want DH to get up with me too for the company but I doubt he'd want to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70278 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 12:46:43 +0000 Boogs 70278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do since I'm a SAHM and the one with the boobs. ;p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70274 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 12:44:27 +0000 mrs. wagon 70274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was bad... even as a SAHM Rob Sr. and I would get up together. But by the time Rob Sr. was back at work full swing, RJ only needed 2 nighttime bottles: midnight and 3 or 4am. Rob Sr. would feed with the bottle and I'd pump. We'd stay up and do the midnight feeding, then we'd both get up for the 3am. When RJ dropped that 3am feeding Rob Sr. definitely appreciated the sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70213 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:18:19 +0000 Rubies 70213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do. Since she only gets up once, I don't mind so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70210 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:15:30 +0000 Mrs. Bee 70210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>100% Mrs. Bee since Olive is not a bottle fan (though she will take it from our nanny... half the time with a battle). But we're going to have to change that soon otherwise I'll never be able to leave her alone with Mr. Bee! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70208 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:12:28 +0000 owlmom 70208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have all the night time duties. If LO wakes up at night, it's to eat, and she's EBF, so I don't really have a choice. Plus, I'm a SAHM, so I would do it even if she needed something other than food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70206 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:09:56 +0000 mynoahbear 70206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have a schedule, but since DH works and I don't, he needs his sleep, so I usually get up to take care of LO at night. Plus DH is a heavy sleeper, so her regular crying doesn't wake him up most of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70204 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:06:50 +0000 yin 70204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a SAHM, and I tend to the baby Sunday night through Thursday night. My husband takes over on the weekends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-tends-to-baby-at-night#post-70200 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:04:56 +0000 autumnlove 70200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have a schedule with your DH on who wakes up to tend to the baby at night? </p>
