[quote=Anonymous]You’re a better parent if you’ve had enough sleep. There is no job in the world you’re better at doing sleep deprived which is just very basic human biology. So have a night nurse and consider it an investment in being a good parent that you’re happy to make. And if your coworker brings it up, you look at her with compassion and say “I want better for my baby and toddler than a sleep deprived mother who has fallen victim to a modern and misogynistic view that suggests postpartum mothers de-prioritize their physical needs” Also, really good night nurses set you up for really good mornings. My sisters brought her breakfast every morning and didn’t leave until she was showered and dressed for the day. Talk to yours about what looks like success.[/quote]
