DM my little one is exactly the same! Generally we have no problems sleeping during the day, it's night time when she becomes really unsettled and clingy.
I'll join you all on the hubby rant! Mine was great at first but now he's over the initial excitement he pretty much leaves me to it. So I'm recovering from a c-section, have had cracked nipples, mastitis and now a cold (thanks to his silly mother who came and stayed with us last week when she was sick!! ) the baby wont settle at night and I'm the one who is constantly feeding and trying to resettle her, often up for hours on end. I'm totally sleep deprived and DH, who is still on paternity leave, seems to think that this is a great time for him to do lots of projects around the house. I gave him a hard time earlier and he told me that he doesn't have boobs therefore can't do much and I need to express more if I want him to help!! I explained that expressing isn't always easy, it's very time consuming and after feeding, burping, changing, settling, resettling etc there's bugger all time for me to stick a pump on my boob!! When he does offer to take her off me he usually just plonks her on the couch Honestly, they just don't realise how demanding it is. Today I have not even had time for a shower and I still need to find time to do my stupid exam....
Ok, rant over I'm going to try and shovel down some dinner before Leila needs me again
Let's hope we all have a good night with babies that sleep soundly and wake infrequently
