Sleep deprivation is the reason why I ignored the parenting advice and put my baby in bed with us. I thought I was losing my mind getting up every 2 hours to feed that little thing who was going through growth spurts on top of growth spurts. I dont even remember if I did laundry or cleaned. I wouldn't be surprised if my husband took over that during that time.

Now that he is sleeping longer at a time, Ive been handling the chores much easier and if he's awake and wants me, I put him in the stroller and park it in front of the washer and dryer so I can do laundry and smile and talk to him.

Sleep deprivation is no joke. By the way he's sleeping in his crib in his room beautifully. It only took 2 days to get him out of our bed and in his own crib sleeping on his own.
