Anyone who came up with the idea to sleep when your baby/toddler is sleeping should suck it. If I sleep when baby sleep when will I get to clean, when will I get to cook , when will I get me time 😩
I made sure to clean just enough that it wasn't gross/overflowing, but my sleep, shower and eating time took precedence over everything else once the baby was asleep lol. One of the best gifts my sil gave me was a $100 gift certificate to a restaurant. I would order takeout, take a shower, while it was on its way, eat, then sleep on the couch.
Did I look like a slob? Yes.
Were there dishes in the sink? Yes.
Were there always 3 full laundry baskets? No, there were 5.
But I ate, slept, and didn't smell like sweat and spit up. And usually once those things were taken care of, everything else got done eventually.
