Sleep · For both of you · Our storyNight shifts that actually worked for us
Splitting the night so each of us got one long stretch.

The split
One of us took 9pm to 2am, the other 2am to 7am. Earplugs and the spare room for whoever was off.
The handoff
A two-line note in the app: last feed, last diaper, anything odd. Nobody had to wake the other to ask.

This is what our family did, not advice. Anything medical links to trusted health sites. Nothing here replaces your provider.
