Discussion on handling sleep deprivation and tips on getting more sleep with a newborn

Cat napper
My son is now 20 months old and his naps have taken a turn for the worst. He 's never been a great napper. Even when he slept 2 hours, he woke up in the middle and cried for a few minutes. Only for a very short lived spurt did he nap 3 hours straight.

Sleep with a newborn
Cheryl, your advice about taking advantage of naps made me LOL because I got the exact same advice from another friend yesterday who is a mom to 3. She seemed almost desperate when she told me to take all the naps I can now. Poor thing!
