Hi
I've been I shift worker since my teens leaving school when I started my nurse training and I always managed to sleep well and flip between days and nights no problem. I've gone back to work doing Monday and Friday day shifts and a Wednesday night (to help keep child care cost down and work are quite firm on keeping people on mixed shifts).
Has anyone got any good tips to stay awake with a baby, I've tried napping today when he's slept but I've woken up feeling worse so I'm reckoning just doing an all nighter might be better. He's been as good as gold and no trouble to look after and I used to be able to pull an all nighter no problem if I just did one night. Did it take anyone a while just to get use to nights again? I'm hoping after a month I mightt just breeze through it no problem.
