Whoever coined the phrase, 'sleeping like a baby' should be shot!
BB (Before Baby), the phrase brought to mind peaceful, deep, un-disturbed slumber.....
Um, no - not when related to my life...
My little cherub mutters, throws his arms around, moves his head from side to side, lets out the odd squeal and farts like a trooper.
That's if I can actually get him to sleep. On a normal day, there's usually 10-20 minutes of protest crying, loud guffaws (he's learning how to laugh) and other strange noises. If he does succumb to sleep, he'll wake up screaming for his dummy (if it's fallen out) or cooing at his toy giraffe.
And what's with that grunting noise just before they fall asleep?!? Is this their way of communicating that it's sleep under sufferance and that we're evil mothers who can't be trusted?! Who knows.... But it would be a brilliant PHD topic!
