The 3 a.m. feeding of baby is a toughie for new and experienced parents alike. Here's how to survive it (and feel less zombie-ish the next day):
Make that feeding parent-friendly. Create a nighttime feeding area with a comfy chair, soft lighting, and a bottle of water for you (maybe even a snack). Parents of newborns rarely have a minute to sit (let alone twenty), so take the 3 a.m. feeding as your time to sit, relax, and enjoy baby.
And know you aren't alone—keep your device handy and catch up on emails, Twitter, and Facebook.
