Currently rageful so am posting here to see if I'm am.

DH travels for work, quite often leaving early or home late. This morning he had to be on the road for 5.30am. His alarm (which was like a siren in our room) went off at 5am waking our 5month old and me.

Cue baby screaming and me being on the point of tears. I've had weeks of shitty sleep due to baby having a cold and then me having a cold, and the 4month sleep regression being like hell on wheels. I am frigging tired. And he's not home til Thursday now.

AIBU in asking DH to sleep in the spare room on future nights / mornings? Saving all our our sanity. He seems to think so Hmm

YANBU. I'm a light sleeper, and no way would I be able to go back to sleep after a blaring alarm went off.

I will be on sofa to sleep. Baby will be in his moses basket at side of sofa. He has a crib at side of bed and basket downstairs. I am less likely to fall asleep bfing on the sofa I think than in the bed.

But can appreciate the extra risks if you were to lay down on a sofa with baby. But I would bf sat up with baby propped up with pillows.
