[quote=Anonymous]I couldn’t even believe the level of sleep deprivation after having my newborn. It exceeded anything I could previously have fathomed. But I did used to sleep deeply between feedings, until I suddenly developed terrifying insomnia at 5 weeks postpartum. I assume the enormous lack of sleep in the early weeks plus the hormone crash caused some sort of PPA that suddenly manifested as insomnia. The worst of it passed quickly but my sleep cycles didn’t return to normal until my toddler was 15 months old. Am due with second any day now and am terrified of the fallout related to sleep this time around. I sleep like a rock while pregnant too. [/quote]
