Rocker Rod Stewart is suffering sleepless nights with newborn son Aiden — forcing him to seek shelter in the spare room!

I love that 66-year-old new dad Rod Stewart is experiencing REAL parenthood unlike many other pampered celebrities…. But perhaps he should help his wife Penny Lancaster feed, change and comfort 10-week-old Aiden rather than run away to another room!

“If the baby wakes up then you have to go sleep in the other room,” Rod reveals. “He’s up every two hours now so a few nights a week I go and sleep in another room.”

Aiden’s Rod’s EIGHTH kid, so I’m impressed he’s so hands on with his latest bundle of joy.

The singer describes it as a “good arrangement, but it seems a bit one-sided to me. I’d never get away with escaping and leaving my partner Jill to look after our baby son Callum in the middle of the night! So I’m urging Rod to man up and get his hands dirty and help out!

The star also revealed little Aiden is suffering reflux, a condition that affects around 50 percentage of newborns, whose digestive systems are not yet developed enough to handle an onslaught of milk.

He tells People.com, “He’s having a little bit of trouble with the reflux. He drinks and brings it all up again, but he’s great.”

But it seems like Rod’s embracing having another baby around, which is just as well — because he’s about to be a grandad!

His daughter Kimberly is pregnant following a fling with actor Benicio Del Toro. Rod was thought to be rumoured to be angry about the unexpected announcement — but he tells People he’s thrilled: “It’s going to be good.”

What do you think about Rod’s parenting arrangement HollyMoms? Am I being too tough on Rod. After all, he is 66!

After a two year struggle to conceive, Rod says he and wife Penny Lancaster’s new “miracle” baby Aiden is their last child…maybe.

After 47 years filled with new babies, Rod Stewart admits that he’s done. At the age of 66, Rod has eight children with five different women, two with his current wife Penny Lancaster, 40, who just gave birth to son Aiden last month. “I can’t have any more kids,” he says, “otherwise I’ll be touring until I’m 90.” Good news?

Penny underwent three rounds of IVF over a course of two years before conceiving Aiden, who Rod calls their “miracle.” “Aiden truly is a miracle,” Rod tells Hello! Magazine. “In the beginning we took it for granted that our second child would be as easy to conceive as Alastair [his 5-year-old son with Penny] was, but the long journey was more than worth it.”

Rod even sings to Aiden when he’s crying — you must admit, you’re a bit jealous.

And although Rod says he is done having kids, if Penny wants another, he might just cave in. He explains he would do “pretty much anything,” to make Miss Lancaster happy. For Rod’s sake, let’s hope it’s not baby number nine.
