My hubby wakes early- I stay up late. Worked GREAT when we had infants needing care in the night, I took them 10 pm – 2 am, he got them 4 -7:30 (I still had to nurse, but he did diaper duty and the getting up to bring them to me) as a result, a friend of mine who had her baby 2 weeks earlier was in a worse way sleep-wise than either of us were after the first week up til they were about 9 months.
