GREAT post. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
It really works. Personally, I am a sucker for sleep. All my friends were up so much in the night for 5-6 years with each kid. Not me, unless they were teething or sick, in which case I want to be up for them. The other 360 nights a year we all bleeping SLEEP! :). I wish more people understood how kind and easy and lazy it is to set it up that way. (And guys don’t really need mama for the full 8 hours... After couple time they often are quite ahem resting.)
