Does your partner / husband help with night feeds?

So, I'm pregnant & due in October, and me and my partner were talking about if he's going to help with night feeds. He works and gets up at 6am every morning for work, and said I would need to do most of it at night because he won't be able to function at work (he has a tech job). I was slightly upset, but not sure if I'm going OTT?
He said on Fridays He could overtake since he doesn't work weekends, I don't know though. What is everyone's opinions?

DH did all night feeds from 4 weeks old. Now DS is 4 years old DH still does all night waking. DH works full time in a demanding job, I'm a SAHM. He always said if I was responsible in the day he would be at night-that being at home all day with a baby was much harder work than work.

I’m also really interested in this thread. We are 7 weeks away from PFB arriving, I’m not carrying, my best friend is our surrogate due to ongoing chemo/immunotherapy for me, so DS will be FF from birth. my DH thinks I will do all night feeds as he gets up from 6am, gets back in from work earliest 6/6.30pm & works heavy machinery often driving too. However, he’s the boss so (should be able to step away from that where necessary) & we readily say BOTH of us are crap with no sleep.

We also have 2 pretty large dogs that need walking in the day but are fortunate to have both sets of grandparents close by to help with that early on....my DH often says “you can sleep/do cleaning/do washing etc when baby sleeps” despite all of our friends in his face & I just say “yeah, let’s just see, I think you’ll be doing more love!” roll on the fun!!

Definitely get DH to do the last feed before he goes to sleep. That gives you a nice long chunk of sleep earlier on in the night.

I used to do weekdays as DP had to drive over 200 miles to work every day.,

ive breastfed up till excl up till 10 months now suppelmenting at 11 months and hasnt helped one bit since he was 2 weeks old during night. and not at all in daytime either until about 8 months when he started to crawl. now at 10 months helps a lot in day because hes walking and a 100 times more easy going. from what i hear from many women like my sisters and fiends and mothers in water babies and in sensory class all the men dont help. a lucky woman here and there have help like one of my sisters. we all just get on with it.
