For the first 6 weeks or so I slept on the couch and just kept all the baby stuff in the living room. I'd watch TV during nursing sessions - esp the old Cold Case and Without a Trace episodes on TNT.
1.where does LO sleep...your room,their room,crib,etc? In the rock and play right next to me.
2. Where do you feed LO overnight? In my bed.
3. Do you do anything while they nurse? In the beginning when DH was sleeping in the guest room (his choice) I would watch some TV. Now that he's back in our bed I just play around on my phone.
1. In his crib in his room. Up until last week, he slept in his rock n play in his room the first part of the night, and then we moved it next to our bed.
2. Up until last week, in our bed. Now I feed him in a glider in his room.
3. Watch TV on mute with closed captioning. Now that I go in his room, usually nothing, but sometimes I bring my phone with me and go online.
1.where does LO sleep...your room,their room,crib,etc? Both of the girls slept in their rooms from day 1
2. Where do you feed LO overnight? In a rocking chair in her room
3. Do you do anything while they nurse? With Stella we had a small flat screen TV (installed for that purpose) so I watched a lot of HGTV and hockey on mute. With Audrey I either read my Kindle or surf the web on my iPhone.
1. He slept in my room for a few weeks, and then in his crib in his room.
2. Downstairs in the living room once I was healed enough to carry him down the stairs.
3. I watched TV mostly with the volume low-ish. I would catch up on all the shows I DVRed and also became addicted to Tabitha's Salon Takeover. (It's still my guilty pleasure.)
I slept with DD. It was way too exhausting to get up several x a night. Not only that, but DH was in an MBA program and he was up late, I was in bed early and up early.
I often watched TV. It was pretty bright. If I'd had my iPhone like i do now, I'd just watch Netflix on it instead of turning on the big TV. I tried reading, but in the middle of the night I was just too tired and it was a big hassle.
1.where does LO sleep...your room,their room,crib,etc? In our room, right next to my side of the bed in her bassinet. Shortly she's going to be too big for it and need to go into her crib. T was in it up till 5 months. The past month or so I've been taking her into her room in the night to feed her in the rocking chair.
2. Where do you feed LO overnight? At first when I was still recovering from my csec I fed her in our bed, also because I was just so exhausted that I needed the tv on so I'd stay awake.
3. Do you do anything while they nurse? If I'm having trouble staying awake I have to watch tv even if it's with the sound down. Most nights I use my phone to check FB, and messages on here. Or I'll surf the net on it.
1. Where does LO sleep...your room,their room,crib,etc? For the first 15 weeks he slept in his bouncy seat, PNP, RNP, or in bed with us...where ever he'd sleep! From 15 weeks on, he has slept in his crib.
2. Where do you feed LO overnight? When he slept in our room, I'd nurse propped up in bed. Now that he's in his room, I nurse in the glider.
3. Do you do anything while they nurse? Usually play on my phone. I used to watch TV in the beginning because I needed something to keep me awake and I needed light to help him latch.
Re: If you bf overnight

DS - In PNP in his room, but I am sleeping in there so that DH doesn't wake up as I get in and out of bed.

3. Both kids - bump and watch tv (with volume on - it didn't even occur to me to mute it. oh well)

2. Where do you feed LO overnight? We always went into his room, in the glider.
3. Do you do anything while they nurse? If I had a Kindle, I would have read. I usually just hopped on the internet with my phone.
