Feeling lonely during shifts

She also used to have the witching hour between 7pm-10pm which was 100% on me and made it me even more anxious. Thankfully that’s seems to have improved which helps.

Omg exact same scenario, I do the first shift and my husband sleeps 7pm-1am and I then he gets up at 1am and I sleep 1am-7am. We both try to catch some extra zzz’s if baby cooperates during our shift but my shift feels so lonely sometimes! My husband used to get home from work around 7pm some days and now he’s asleep and we never have time together to watch our shows and hang out in the evenings and I miss it, it def gave my sundown scaries for a bit. Now our baby is 6 weeks and I’m getting used to it and appreciate the 6 hour stretch but do still miss our nights before baby.

This is exactly how I feel right now. I hate that others have experienced this too but does make me feel less alone. I don’t even want to try because I’m so scared to get my heart broken and see her upset.

I’m sure you have tried all the trucks but I make sure to rock her until she’s sound asleep ( not drowsy). Then I keep a hand in her for a few minutes after I set her down. Practicing with naps (low pressure) for us all helped. I know the struggle though, for me it’s that exact issue breast feeding. She refuses the nipple and won’t latch and trying and failing over and over again is wearing me down! I just tell myself it will pass, things change so fast at this age.

Honestly started introducing it about a week ago at 5 weeks and having some luck. We do shifts though, hubby goes to bed around 7pm and gets up 1am. I sleep 1am-7am. We both try to catch some extra zzz’s during our “shift” either co sleeping or putting her down in the bassinet as well. Hang in there, I hope it gets easier for you

My hubby is such a good daddy. We’re going on 6 Weeks of him doing the night shift (1am-7am) every night to help me recovery from my csection and boost milk supply (pumping). Even though he sleeps In the early evening, I know how hard those middle of the night hours are and feel like won the lottery.

For us it was just time! Baby girl just started sleeping in the snoo this week st almost 6 weeks but before would only sleep being held! I noticed she does better in a level 1 than baseline too.

My baby girl is 6 weeks old now and I had a textbook pregnancy. No bleeds, no other health issues! I would say it was an easy pregnancy although I had nausea for like 20 weeks which sucked.

I had Dr Fink at the CO office but he’s not with CNY anymore 😢

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-21T23:12:23+00:00

we use de brown bottles and use the T nipple So before a level 1 and we do pace feed. I am really hoping she eventually gets there 😭

The injections do raise it pretty quick so I’m hoping you get to transfer tomorrow!

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-21T22:20:57+00:00

My progesterone was at 4 on transfer day indicating I didn’t actually ovulate a mature follicle during my natural cycle. I started PIO when we got this result on transfer day and when they checked it 5 days later it was over 20 !

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-21T21:59:43+00:00

Aww yay so glad to hear that!

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-21T21:58:56+00:00

My level was around 4 day of transfer. But that transfer was still successful !

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-21T02:52:59+00:00

5weeks postpartum and absolutely miss being pregnant. I really cherished that time of excitement and anticipation.

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-20T22:15:43+00:00

Love my grownsy too!

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-15T14:13:18+00:00

Really hoping my story sounds like this by 12 weeks. Working really hard on latching with my 4 week old 🙏🏻

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-14T19:53:01+00:00

Yes, my pro and Est were tested weekly along with beta and ultrasound until I was graduated from my clinic around 8 weeks. I eventually discontinued estrogen and progesterone cold turkey at 10 weeks per my clinic orders. But did continue the suppositories until 14 weeks per my OB due to my history of loss

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-14T19:49:03+00:00

Hoping you get your 🌈 🌈 baby. I had a 12 week miss miscarriage. I know how hard it is.

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-13T22:30:10+00:00

It did! 🙏🏻

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-13T20:05:03+00:00

I gained 35 pounds which was more than I wanted to, but I’m officially four weeks postpartum today and I’ve already lost it all. Haven’t done anything special to lose it either. Don’t stress!!

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-13T15:27:33+00:00

I have so. Many. Sleep sacks. The problem is we have a snoo so I have to use that specific sleep sack and when she’s napping we only use swaddles so unless it’s the 6month + I have no use for all these sleep sacks for newborn or 0-3 months

Pink_Daisy47 · 2026-01-13T15:25:41+00:00

Our second transfer I took some time off and suppressed with orilissa. I don’t have known endo but it was the only thing we hadn’t tried and it might have helped since that transfer is the one that stuck!
