Seriously?
Children ARE 24/7.. and babies sleep all the time? I remember waking to change, feed, and even sometimes Bathe my babies in the night! Waking sometimes 4 times at night! Mothers are TIRED, and their work is never done! And referring to the original post. If all she is allowed is to use is her mothering skills, then the rest of her will be lost, and all she will be is simply
A mother.

Agreed. I never slept. Mine always woke every 3 hours to feed.

It took an hour to feed, and hour to fall asleep again and then I'd be up in an hour again.

Getting one hour of sleep every three hours isn't fun. I was a zombie!
