need advice.. so my husband works night shift 11pm-7am and I'm scheduled to be induced Tuesday at 8am.. financially we can't afford for him to take off alot of time..I'm really worried that he will be up all night monday and then fall asleep during my labor.. he thinks he will be fine but I'm just concerned he won't be as helpful when he's tired.
he should probably try & get a nap in & drink coffee, energy drink or whatever works for him. that should help a bit.
I'm already 4cm and they are breaking my water and my Dr said I'll go into active labor fast. my first son I went from 1-10cm and had him in under 7 hours.
My husband slept through a lot of my labor.. funny funny story though. My husband also works nights, 10-6 and I am worried about the time I'll go into labor for the same reason. But it wasn't that bad for me the first time around with him sleeping. I woke him up as soon as I needed him and he was right there for me!
