Before you all flame me, I know I sound extremely ungrateful but there is a reason behind it. DD2 is 7 weeks old and in our room while DH sleeps in the spare room (I am BFing and it is pointless us both being awake all night.) She tends to feed around midnight and 4am and then struggles to go back to sleep after the 4am feed. She is generally quite unsettled with wind until around 6am when she falls back into a deep sleep. DD2 tends to get up around 6.30-7am and DH gets up with her (as he gets a full nights sleep.) He gets DD1 her breakfast and then brings me up a cup of tea and some toast in bed. While I am aware this is very nice of him, it is a complete pain in the arse. Firstly it always wakes me up and I struggle to get back to sleep. I am not the kind of person who enjoys lounging around or eating in bed; if I am awake, I tend to get up. Secondly, and more importantly, it usually wakes up DD2. Which means that any chance of me going back to sleep and catching up on the bad nights are completely scuppered. So I get up and a small part of me wonders if he does it on purpose knowing that it will wake me up so I get up and help out with DD1 SO WIBU to ask him nicely to leave us alone in the morning until we are ready to get up?
