I do think I have adapted a bit to it, and am able to deal with sleeplessness better than I could. Having said that though, 15 minute naps are lifesavers! I've read something about looking at electronics (the blue light) and sleeplessness. We've thought about cutting out all screen time an hour or two before bed, but, it's easier said than done!

It doesn't necessarily make it any easier to deal with.

I never used to "sleep when the baby sleeps" but after 2 years I have learned that the other stuff I feel like I have to get done when he is napping can just wait.

I start getting ready for bed at around 9, then get sucked into some silly task and don't get tucked into bed until 11. By then I'm wide awake. It's no wonder I'm walking around half asleep! #kcacolsLizzie firstoothhttp://firstooth.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349668044326313600.post-89567155949540729982016-07-02T15:50:33.277-07:002016-07-02T15:50:33.277-07:00These are great tips, it can be so difficult to fu...These are great tips, it can be so difficult to function on little sleep.
