We had Dana come to support us/our baby 3x during postpartum nights of sleep deprivation (and joy!). Having Dana stay overnight helped us catch up on sleep and got needed household tasks done (laundry, dishes) when we weren't otherwise able to attend to those things. If you can afford it, the first 6 weeks are the time to splurge on having some nighttime support! Dana was great - so experienced with babies, very helpful, likes to stay busy working (she cleaned our dishes while the baby slept, etc). I am breastfeeding exclusively, but having Dana change the diaper and feed a pumped bottle while i pumped milk increased my nighttime sleep and allowed my husband to try to sleep through the night.
