…How do you accidentally put a baby in an oven?! JFC, this is awful.
I have never been less intelligent in my adult life than on night 7 of an acid reflux constant screaming night that never ends. That goes on for 6 weeks after birth or longer sometimes
But still an oven and a crib are completely different things, you have to open an oven and then close it. Also ovens typically have racks in them, which would be difficult to fit a baby in with those in.
This sounds like straight malice or insanity.
Sleep depravation is insanity....
The comment you replied to made is pretty clear how sleep deprived a new parent can become.
Some people are more or less susceptible to it, for various reasons. If I get <7h of sleep for 5-7 days in a row my personality starts to change, and that's not exactly severe sleep depravation...
A newborn parent might just be getting 2-4h a day, which is a disabling amount of sleep depravation. And no, your friend doesn't survive on 3h/n, if they do they should be a research subject, individuals with SSS are genetically dispositioned to be able to sleep <= 6.5 hours per night. They're literally a special breed of people, and 3h/n would be an actual marvel
Sleep deprivation is a few notches above insanity. You would gladly kill someone if it ment you could sleep on their corps.
That's only the "I haven't slept at all in nearly a week" level, and I'm not talking like an hour a night.
I've worked 12 hour shifts before commuting 1-1.5 hours each way, along with having lifelong insomnia, and half of those shifts were 7 PM to 7 AM, so I know the toll it takes on you. 4 hours or less of shitty quality sleep after working a 12 hour day and being awake for 16-18 hours, off hours (going to sleep at 9 or 10 AM and waking up at 4:30 PM) definitely takes a toll on you.
My brother is a machine and sleeps like 3-5 hours a night, commutes hours each way, works as an electrician for like 10-16 hours, and then would come home and take care of his daughter (who just turned 4, he's held the same job for years).
I can't think of a funny joke/pun since it's 2:30 AM and I'm waiting for my 20 mg of Ambien to kick in, but your typo of corpse without the e made me think of you killing a group of people (a corps, pronounced Core, because, French) just to sleep on their corpses 😂
If you don’t regularly get enough restful sleep you can start microsleeping and you wont be aware of it. I’d have a stern talk with your brother about that since he does dangerous work as an electrician and has a young daughter.
I've tried to but he's stubborn as hell and doesn't listen, he's 4 years older than me. He breaks my balls about relying on Ambien for sleep. His opinion is "if I'm fucked up I wanna feel fucked up" (as in "something is wrong") and I retorted "do you want to feel that way for the next 40-50 years when it can be remedied?" and his only response was " you got me there... "
Maybe mom was sleep-deprived and was about to cook a turkey the same time she was taking care of the baby and maybe she put the turkey in the crib...
😳
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been exhausted and later discovered I put the milk by the coffee machine and the coffee in the fridge. Same premise, slightly less terrible outcome.
I like to drink a coffee and a glass of juice in the morning. I have put juice instead of milk in my coffee more often than I would admit.
They're not even in the same packaging, one is a tetra pack, the other is a tall glass bottle.
