    Watching this to see how I can support my wife in our nightly routine. Our daughters 2 weeks old and we love her so much. Being a dad has changed my life forever. That nursing at 3am ain’t no joke! I try to keep my wife company and have light conversations to keep her awake. The nights are tough but we are getting through it. Thanks for all the great suggestions in your video!!! Respect 💯

      Congrats! Have you considered doing a dream feed from a bottle 2ish hours after baby goes to sleep for the night-- it can really help her get more sleep

      My husband bought me a gliding rocker that reclines. This was if I fell asleep baby and I were both safe. He also makes my breakfast so I can sleep in as much as possible. The little things help a lot.

    I remember those nights. Watching this makes me miss them so bad. I was so ready for them to be over when it was happening but now that my baby is sleeping so much better through the night, this makes me go back to think about how much time I really got to spend with him during nights like this. It’s a beautiful feeling. Cherish these moments mamas!

      Same! This baby looks so chill. Our baby is almost three weeks old and if it takes a second too long for me to react to his hunger cues in the middle of the night he will just start screaming at the top of his lungs. 😅 Still absolutely worth it for this cute little guy.

  • @paitesmith9133
    @paitesmith9133 4 ปีที่แล้ว +94

    Haven’t read all the comments.... but for night feedings, you might want to limit interactions w baby so he’s less stimulated. Save all the talking and smiling for daytime hours of wakefulness. This will help him stay drowsy during nighttime so he can more easily fall asleep after feeding. Just a friendly suggestion....

I've wanted this for so long, but didn't find the right person or it wasn't the right time for me... but now it's happened, it's finally here and I just can't wait. I know it will be hard (or I can imagine it, moms use to say that you think you know but you don't know haha) and it will be difficult, sometimes so tiring, sacrifices and mistakes... but I just can't wait to have my baby, to see them grow, to see them smile, talk, look, ask questions, go to school, to educate them, raised them, have chats with them even worry to death!! I was born to be a mom I know I was.

    • @desiderata1985

      Well if it keeps her up and alerted which is safer for baby than mum falling asleep while feeding as it becomes very exhausting and all wake ups are sliding into one blur. I know that this is possible. Although I needed only dim light myself sometimes though I had to have some kind of noise to keep me up like eaio very quietly. My baby was feeding very unevenly. Started with very long feeds probably due to small let down to shorter ones but more frequent like 2 feeds every 1.5h or 2 one with longer break like 3h or even 3.5. My baby didn like to be swaddled and

Then she still didn’t sleep unless I rocked her for hours and made sure I had a huge supply of milk for her to drink (for about an hour) before she finally fell asleep around midnight, only to wake up again in 2-3 hours for her next session. I’m so jealous of how easy it is to put him down 😭

    I gave birth almost 5 weeks ago, towards the end of my pregnancy I couldn't wait for it to be over, I then gave birth to my boy via cesarean and when I first got back from the hospital, although I loved my baby however I found the baby blues so difficult combined with postpartum depression, I was constantly crying, missing my old life, exhausted and tired of changing nappies and being sleep deprived, as the weeks have gone on and my boy only awake twice at night now ive slowly starting to feel myself again, not completely but getting there.
    As he is growing and learns something new everyday it just makes me so happy, everyone always says it gets better, I've started to believe it now.
    Just stay strong mamas, it may be a tedious and exhausting process but it will pass and as your baby develops a little personality it's well worth it.
