Mother's health....both physical and emotional affect the child in the womb. So, if you work nights, please ensure that your nutritional aspects are taken care of and you get enough sleep during the day.
But once the child is born...he needs to grow in his natural rhythm. So you may have to make adjustments not just in terms of lighting, may be with respect your schedule etc...

I believe you need to adjust to your baby not the other way around. Do you really want to bring them up to be awake at night and asleep during the day... what will happen when they start school.. As far as I know there isnt a night school for preschool.
Maybe you need to ask your work if they can put you on during the day now...

Liker all humans your baby will have a natural "rhythm" of sleep/waking. You can modify it, with artificial lights - but as "Wickedly" says, he will have to live in the normal world. Long periods of night shift hours can affect one's metabolism for years afterwards - I know, I worked that way. Try to find a day-job. And babies need more than pre-school carers etc. Birthing isn't all there is to parenting, kiddo! So you will need to structure your own activities around the babe for two or three years. Babies need to powerfully identify with "reliable" parents, early. It isn't a part-time job. My daughter is a psychiatrist, with twins, specialising in child psychiatry. She gave up work for two years, then found a wonderful "Nanny" who really cared for the kids, as babes, and taking them to pre-school etc later. But because my daughter could organise her own work-times she was able to take them herself to kindy-gym, "drown-proofing" (that was fun for all of us), and much more, often with their Nanny who they loved. Few could do that. And despite cancer etc, I could help give them a reliable "base" as Grandpa, with help from my own mate and carer. We moved to do it, and I reckon it has kept me alive. Can you enlist similar supports, with you as the central tent-pole?

your baby should adjust well to what ever schedule you put him or her on. I worked strange hours also when my kids were babies and they did fine keeping different hours

As long as you're consistent, he'll be fine. The lighting helps.
