Dealing with nightly disruptions is often just a part of being a new parent, and if the baby has sleep issues it can make it even worse. The average mom gets up two to four times per night–which typically means Mom is a little sleep deprived. After feedings, diaper changes and providing whatever else the little tyke needs, it’s a rare thing for the parents, especially the mom, to get enough sleep.
Unfortunately, just because Mom needs sleep doesn’t mean she’s going to get it. There are plenty of duties and distractions, including the wonderful little bundle of joy. Esther Anderson, a new mother, has put together a humorous clip of some of the funniest moments of her attempting to catch up on sleep with her kid in the same bed.
In the words of Esther, “Every morning my baby sleeps in my bed with me for a couple of hours after she wakes up to eat. And every morning I ask myself why I didn’t just put her back in her crib….so this morning I grabbed my cellphone and recorded what my baby alarm clock looks like. I think I’m not alone in this…”
After the baby wakes up, she does so many “baby things” to her mother that it feels hilarious to watch it later in the video. Watch the full video below and please leave us a Facebook comment to let us know what you thought!
