You have just retired to your bed after a long tiring days work,and hardly have you slept,for 10 minutes, your baby starts crying and seems its experiencing pain of something or have had a bad dream, how will you console your baby or you simply entrust this task to your spouse and continue to sleep?

I experienced it. It is a real headache. As the baby is too little and you don't know why he will cry. My baby needs to be cradled all the time so that he will be a little bit satisfied. When he was 6 months old, then this problem seems to decrease.

Perhaps sometimes my husband did more than me. When my child was very little, he cried very often. And my husband often brought him out and it seemed my baby liked going out. So it was very interesting to find them downstairs. They would go home when our baby fell asleep.

So more or less your husband, has played a greater role in pacifying your kid when he cries.

No matter how tired and sleepy I am when I feel that there is something wrong with my kids, I cant just leave them to my partner.I will personally see what is wrong with them. I will be the one to attend to them and assure them that everything is fine. But if they have pain and there is nothing I can do, then I would rush them in the hospital.

Well, my hubby has to wake up at around 4:30 a.m. every morning, so I usually do baby duty at night time, but when he worked a different job, whtn the oldest was a baby, He'd get up with him, we usually took turns.

It depends. My daughter starts the night in her crib and moves to our bed partway through the night. My husband stays up later than I do, so most of the time we'll make a deal that until he comes to bed, he can help her go back to sleep, and then after he comes to bed, I go get her when she wakes up and she sleeps with us. It depends on the situation though... sometimes I wake up with her from the beginning, if he's not feeling well or if he's busy with something. And some nights he'll get her almost all night so that I can get some rest. It just depends.
