Help .......I need to get some sleep 3 Years, 12 Months ago Karma: 1  
Hi,

My son is now three weeks old, I have not had a decent nights sleep since we got him home. He wakes twice a night and my wife gets up to feed him.

Are there any ideas on how I can get a decent night sleep, or how to start to get him to sleep through??

any advice would be greatley apreciated

Hi,

I found getting my daughter into a routine as quickly as possible was the key, with a feed at 11.00 she would sleep through to 4.00 and then back to sleep until 7.00.

I also found the spare room was a god send I used to use it when I found the sleep depravation was getting to much.

A bottle of Calpol for you and a spoonful for him.

Golden rule is there is no point you both being knackered at the same time. Therefore if one of you is up the other should try and get some kip. Era plugs are awsome-seriously!Make sure she uses them to.

if only I could get away with that, as we are bottle feeding,I have to take it in turns 1 night on 1 night off.

on the night off I use the spare room otherwise I would be awake anyway.

This works for us.
