I'm 6 weeks postpartum and also a student online. I'm having a really hard time coping with not sleeping. Not sleeping is taking a toll on my schoolwork and I'm just trying to find ways to balance it all out. I'm a morning person. Always have been since I was born. As a baby I slept through the night and was awake during the day.w hen the sun comes up its hard for me to sleep in the day. I'm still that way so these every two to three hours my son wakes up is killing me. He was a month early so he always wants me and I just can't get a break. PLEASE HELP ME. he cries at night with his dad so he brings him to me then he stops crying. I WANT TO CRY WITH HIM.
