Sleep is the word...

I though I was getting along fine without much sleep until people started pointing out to me how tired I probably was.
To be fair, I can't blame them for pointing it out, I was, at the time trying to turn left at a cross roads while my traffic light was still on red and I had my precious girls in the car with me. Then I reversed into an old man in his car behind me wondering what was beeping at me (the reversing beepers)

I've been trying to get sleep when I can, like when my eldest is asleep or at nursery but that seems to coincide with the youngest's feeding/ gripy times. I finally had a window of opportunity today only for next door's child to began his swan song which usually last for quite some time so blink and I'd missed my window.

So.. this may make me feel better or significantly worse, but how much sleep are you ladies getting? I suspect two under two will win this one hands down but, taking account of any and all naps in a 24 hour period, and ignoring very good or very bad nights, how much sleep are you, on average, getting? And how much is your record for one stretch?

I am getting between 4 and 5 hours a night and my best yet is 3 hours in one sleep.

  1. With my 3 week old darling - record so far is 4 hours (wow - one off!) and averaging 5 hours a night, maybe 6 if I try to go to bed at 7pm!
