Scientists from Aarhus University in Denmark found that men were just as likely to be woken by the sounds of crying as women.

Computer modelling shows this cannot explain why they do so much more of the care.

Women were, on average, about 14 per cent more likely to wake up to sounds between 33 and 44 decibels - about as loud as birdsong or a library.

But men and women woke with the same frequency as soon as the volume started to approach that of a real baby's crying.
