Atomic said this was (an unintended!) part of her sway, and I'm thinking about adding it in the last 1-2 weeks before ovulation.
It was a pretty major role in my sway too (also unintended). And atomic mentioned it was something that could speak to the declining condition of the mother. But I think she also said it was pretty unproven and probably would have to be pretty intense/long-lived to have much of an effect. But I'm sure she will pop on and correct me if I misspoke. I had a horrid sleeper of a second child and was lucky to get a often-broken 5-6 hours for his entire first 13 months, like crazy-inducing lack-of-sleep. I got sick a lot because of it too. I don't really recommend torturing yourself. But if a couple hours shaved off makes you feel more confident (and not obsessive), go for it!
I've been sleep deprived for 2 years since my son was born! Hope that counts! X
Yeah, me too! Hopefully it helps!
Yes I believe it sways pink BUT I hesitate to really push people to include it, since most of us are caring for small children and obviously it's not healthy in the long term. Some people take a suggestion and take it to crazy places and I don't want anyone falling asleep while driving for something that is no magic bullet anyway (because there ARE no magic bullets)
:agree: I was so sleep deprived it was horrible and I could barely function let alone take care of two active boys. Luckily I never had to drive anywhere because when I would sit to watch TV I would fall asleep in like 30 seconds. We had a near miss where I accidentally gave my son my adult allergy medicine instead of his kids' allergy medicine because I was so exhausted. And I have just seen way too many swayers do stuff (pardon my French here) but that is bat-sh-- crazy and I know if I start telling people, hey try getting less sleep that there are going to be people sleeping 2 hours a night and crap like that. So...just, no. Something that prob. sways but just isn't worth it.Quote:
