Need Tips for Getting Through All-Nighters

My LO is in his first three weeks and has lately started staying up for most of the nights.  I know this is to be expected, but he is my firstborn and it has been hard getting through the all-nighters.  Any tips/encouragement for helping him to sleep or mentally getting through the late nights??

    Thank you for the help!  It's encouraging to know that others have gotten through it and that we're not far off what many of you are describing.  Henry's father and I are working on splitting time, but as we are in a 1-bedroom place, even in the other room LO can wake us up :)  We'll keep going and hope we can get the sleep schedule solidified soon!

    If you aren't breastfeeding, do shifts! I would do the evening, hubs did late night, I did middle of the night, and hubby did early morning. And try your best to SLEEP when it's not your turn! If he asked for help, of course, I was there, and vice versa, but that would be a last resort.

    Now once DH went back to work, I did all night time duties...fun times!
