"Sleep is like the unicorn it is rumored to exist, but I doubt I will see any."
It is a big mistake to ignore bedtime. Sometimes, a late night can occur and it is not a big concern and does not bring about serious consequences. However, if you have a baby, you probably started skimping on sleep on a regular or daily basis, which could influence both your mental and physical health. Over time, it can cause chronic health issues and negatively influence your life quality.
We need sleep as much as your body needs to eat and breathe. The sleep amount that a person needs varies from people to people.
I mean your baby's finally getting some shut-eye. Why aren't you?
