If someone asked your DH...

Elisa312 · June 2009

...how much LO ate and slept, and how often, would they be able to tell them? Correctly?

My DH would not. No clue.

lisabowman · June 2009

he'd get pretty close I think

anardi · June 2009

Yep and this is why I love him!

me&mymonkey · June 2009

He knows how much per feeding but not how many oz DS eats a day. DH could also answer how DS sleeps at night but not how often he naps, but that is because DS's napping is always different. I would say he would be 75% accurate.

TimingisEverything · June 2009

Yes he would.

11Lemon11 · June 2009

he would be able to tell them how much is in each bottle, but that's it, the other stuff he would have no clue.

Jessis62781 · June 2009

He'd be pretty close.

TennisWife815 · June 2009

He'd be close. He calls at least once a work day to check in on things like that and asks again when he gets home so he can help.

Bellisimo · June 2009

I think so.

schmapril · June 2009

He might be able to on a good day. He only knows the answer to the sleep question because he asks me every morning how much we slept...he sleeps in another room during the week since he has to be 'on' at work.

Quazel · June 2009

Yep, he could say it all. Except overnight. He asks me every morning if DS STTN since he is such a deep sleeper he doesn't hear us get up. But then, he does ask so he knows what really happened.

Pumpkin111 · June 2009

Yup! He's had her on his own enough to get the gist.. but at the beginning no.

mommyaug06 · June 2009

yes. when he is home he helps out as much as he can.

Impatientgal · June 2009

Yup, he's good like that

bithy75 · June 2009

I think my DH knows even better than I do sometimes! He's a super hands-on dad.

houndbaby · June 2009

He knows ds's bedtime and waking time and how many ounces he eats in a bottle

risysmama · June 2009

Yes, he's been watching her since I went back to work.

californiaclaire · June 2009

He would have no clue -- poor guy. I BF when I'm at home, so it's all baby & me. And DS's schedule seems to change every day -- some days he'll take a couple big naps, some days just catnaps here & there.

He could, however, tell you some stories about dirty diapers!! Stick out tongue

kabarbanel · June 2009

yep

bstngrl578 · June 2009

Yes, he would.

Amanda3.15.08 · June 2009

Yes, he is very hands on. He keeps her in the morning while I work.

Temp552270562505132 · June 2009

yep

Deegirl322 · June 2009

Yes of course. He's a great husband and very involved.?

cubsfan1 · June 2009

anardi:
Yep and this is why I love him!

What Nardi McNarly said!

FinallyMrsBMW · June 2009

I think he'd get close. Although one time he made a 7 oz bottle when DD usually takes between 4-5 oz. and she surprised me and downed the whole thing! He's a good dad

JenMich · June 2009

Of course.

mm&cc · June 2009

Yes. At this point, he'd know better than me. He stays home with her right now.

Temp149801812508276 · June 2009

He would say she sleeps less than she actually does, but would be pretty accurate on how much she eats.

Donny-stfu · June 2009

Nope. I found out he was telling people that she eats every half hour, and sleeps 7 hour stretches at night. Ummm no. She eats every 2-3 hours during the day, and MAYBE sleeps 5 hours. He's kind of clueless sometimes.

stellar77 · June 2009

He would.

alatham · June 2009

My DH is great with that stuff. He knows exactly how much she eats and what time, and what time she'll sleep.

jdekzoo · June 2009

Absolutely!

TwoSkis · June 2009

Exactly? No. But then again neither can I.

She eats 4 times a day, but I EBF so I have no idea of the amount. We feed solids when we get around to it. But she is satisfied, and is gaining weight well, and that's all that matters to me.

Sleeping, he would probably know, but her bedtime (and hence waking up in the mornings) varies on occasion.

christie.h · June 2009

I think he'd be pretty close. I EBF and although he doesn't know exactly how much DS eats at a time obviously, he does know that I store the PBM in 4oz bags and would give DS a 4oz bottle if I needed to miss a feeding.
