I'm going on a work trip to the US at the end of this month for 4 nights, and DH will be looking after 6mo DS. I've got plenty of worries about this but my main one this week (!) is that DS still wakes about 1-3 times a night (when I agreed to this trip back in Jan, I naively thought he would be sleeping through by now - lol!) and DH just does not seem to wake up to his cries. This was the same when he actually shared our room - sometimes DH could be sleeping next to the bedside cot with DS crying and not wake up! He's now in his own room and we keep the baby monitor on as his room's two doors away.
Could this be because I'm usually there so subconciously he knows he doesn't need to wake because I'll take care of it? In which case is he more likely to wake if I'm gone? Has anyone had any experience of this?
thanks!
