Hello, I am after some advise as to how others would split the 'night shift' with a fidgety toddler. Both parents very hands on. Child currently wakes at about 2am to find parents in main bedroom. Will then sleep as long as someone is right next to them. Usually fidgets a lot. Up for the day at about 5.30 a .m.
Person A:
As soon as toddler appears moves into another bedroom.
Person B:
Stays with fidgety toddler for the rest of the night.
Once toddler is up for the day, Person B usually wakes Person A to catch up on another hour of sleep.
Currently both parents resentful. Person A for covering 'the morning shift', Person B for never getting uninterrupted sleep.
To Add: Person A is regularly away from the children overnight (approx. 50 nights this year)
