Yeah, I do most of the nighttime parenting, but mostly because my husband is such a heavy sleeper. I see no point most of the time in hearing her, waking him and then having all of us awake (because usually, if it only takes a minute to get her back down, then I'm awake the whole time anyhow.) BUT - my dear husband goes on duty at 5 am. If she makes a noise after 5, he's on call and I can kick him out of bed to handle her. This means on the rare days that she decides to wake at 5:15, he is the one who climbs out of bed and attempts to convince her to sleep in. There have been many days that the hours between 5-7 are the only decent sleep I get because I know he's going to handle it. I'm off duty during that time. Even on weekends.
