I’m a ftm and baby is just a week old. Baby just wants to sleep on us all the time. We try to take shifts holding her so one of us gets sleep, but since I’m only breastfeeding her I get the short end of the stick. I’m incredibly tired and found myself falling asleep holding her while on my shift. My husband is very tired too, it’s awful. I’m at my breaking point especially with breastfeeding on demand. I had a full breakdown a few hours ago. She doesn’t sleep in her crib for more than 10 mins. We ordered the halo bassinet which will arrive tomorrow so I’m holding out hope that might work so my husband and I can sleep at the same time.
Long post just to basically say, I’ve been researching the safe 7 sleep, reading old Reddit posts from people who have coslept. If you have experience with this please leave a comment and let me know. I’m not looking for judgement so if you don’t have tips or advice you can kindly not comment. I don’t smoke I don’t drink, we have a firm mattress. I’m really considering it being so sleep deprived.
