Sleep
When
you first bring baby home from the hospital, you will not get much
sleep at night, but you will get a lot of sleep during the day if
you allow yourself. This is because newborns sleep as much during
the day as they do at night. While it may be difficult for parents
to sleep during the day as their baby does, it is an excellent thing
to do, and it can keep you from being tired all the time.
As your baby begins to get older, you will be able to sleep more
at night and less during the day, until eventually (although for
a while it may feel like it will never happen) you will get back
on a normal schedule where you go to bed at a normal time, you get
to sleep all night, and you wake up at a normal time.
When this will actually happen for you can vary by a year or more
and can be disrupted at any time by illnesses, and more. But, there
is hope that it will, for the most part, be normal again.
