I have a great solution for sleep deprivation when you become a parent:

  1. Have a shitty sleep schedule since forever
  2. Become a parent
  3. Notice that nothing changed, your sleeping schedule is as shitty as it ever was
  4. ???
  5. Profit

Can't resent it if you're always asleep. Modern problems...

Could never sleep properly before kids. Now, I’m tired all the time and could fall asleep in seconds, on any surface.

Thats how I was too. I cant sleep anywhere but a bed, but when my son was nursing? I fell asleep anywhere, a chair, the car, on a blanket in the park. If that baby was sleeping, I was too, as much as I could anyway, but sometimes it wasn't up to me! I'd just fall asleep standing haha
