Congratulations Qt 🥳 For my first born, I literally didn’t eat for 36 hours and would not leave my wife’s side at the hospital. It was like beholding a miracle when I first held him. He’s 14 now and I still find myself smitten every now and then. As far as sleep goes, we never recovered. He was almost 4 when our daughter was born and she literally has not left our side as night ever since - even To this day. You will acclimate to less sleep. You might be one of the lucky ones and return to 6+ hours/night after a few months. Here’s to hoping that’s true 🍻 For the vibes: 1000 $DEGEN

Thank you, and while I don't expect to get back to "pre" baby sleep, I love sleep and want as much of it as I can get. Tbd how that plays out 😵💫

The baby will keep mom awake more than you and you’ll need to support her. Mom won’t be able to do much else. Sleep while the baby sleeps. The baby may cry a lot. One bit of advice from one dad to another - never ever ever ever lose your patience with baby or mom no matter how sleep deprived you are. If mom is producing more milk than the baby can drink, rent the fancy breast pump from the hospital. It’s worth it. Store the milk in the freezer so when mom can’t function anymore due to lack of sleep, you can let her sleep by warming up milk and feeding the baby. Test the warmed up milk every time to make sure it doesn’t scald your baby. It’s going to be tough for a while, but you got this. 🫂
