[quote=Anonymous]Explain to him that your infant will sleep less and less during the day as the weeks tick on. It’s easy to look at a 1-2 month old baby (assuming they are a decent sleeper) and think it’s possible to get 4-5 hours of work in during the day. But by 6 months, baby will be down to 3 naps, and some might be only 30-45 minutes. Also explain that you have limited control over when the baby goes to sleep or wakes up. Babies are always changing and you never know when they will suddenly start resisting the midday nap, or start waking up from the 3pm nap at 3:30 instead of 4. You are constantly having to adjust. And that doesn’t work if you need to be able to attend a regular staff meeting or talk to clients on the phone. Your baby could be quiet or asleep most of the morning, but if he’s fussing during a 15 minute call with your boss, it’s a nightmare. You need childcare. [/quote]
