eBook about Tips For Helping You and Your Baby Sleep - These tips will help you at least get enough sleep to keep your sanity....

When the baby starts crying both parents generally wake up, even if only one attends to the baby.

However, in the first couple of months both parents might get up each time the baby cries.

This will lead to a lack of sleep for both parents. The best plan is for mum and dad to make a plan beforehand of who will get up to comfort the crying baby.

Generally, taking turns is really the best option and will help everyone get just a little more sleep.

Obviously, if the mother is breastfeeding, then this can prove more difficult for each of the parent to take turns.

A good idea is on occasions for the woman to express some milk in advance and allow the partner to do the feeding in the night.

This is a good thing to establish in the first few weeks of a baby’s life, so they can get used to feeding from both the beast and a bottle.

Get all bottles, sterilizing equipment, formula, etc. ready before you go to bed so as to not make the ‘getting up in the middle of the night’ process even more painful to deal with!
