Topic: You know you are sleep deprived when... Posted: 07 October 2006 at 6:05pm |
1. You forget your husbands birthdate while filling out birth registration forms.
2. While filling out the birth registration you also forget what year your brand new baby was born!
3. Your hubby, fully dressed, attempts to put his shorts on over his jeans.
Anyone else got any pearlers to add??

alright, I will admit, I had to giggle at the mental picture of B trying to pull up his shorts over jeans

Hey paws, i am with you on the number 1. I had to ask him what his DOB was.
4. You forget your husband's middle name while filling out the birth registration.
5. You call your newborn your cat's name - me and hubby both do that
6. You call your partner your brother's name - more than once.

1. U talk to your cat likes its ur baby by accident
2. Call your baby ur cats name (i do this often) or vice versa
3. Go shopping at 7.30am to get nappies etc and put shopping in the car and instead of getting in the drivers seat to leave u climb in behind the drivers seat shut the door wait a min before realising that you are the one that is supposed to be in the drivers seat. Get out sheepishly and leave in a hurry LOL

1. You have to ring your parents are ask them your date of birth when filling in the forms - I was so tired but I had to do them then and it was so funn, mum had a good laugh.
2. You answer your phone with what you would say at work. Lucky it was my friend who worked with me and we had a laugh about that on too.

Tiredness when I was a new mum:
Dreamt that the baby was my pillow and kept waking up with a fright!
Bit further down the track:
Put nappies on backwards.
.. I have tonnes more but I'm too tired to think of them!

OK so I haven't actually HAD the babies yet, but not a lot of sleep happening here and...
I got up to pee and dozed off on the toilet and woke with a start just as I was falling off...

when mikey was little and we were trying to get him to stop sleeping in our bed i'd wake up freaking out coz i couldn't find him and i'd wake sam up by frantically patting all over the bed looking for the baby before waking up enough to realise that he was in his cot.

I had SO many dreams that I was suffocating Ashlee when in fact, she's never ever slept in our bed! Even to the point where I was pulling on the blankets and hubby said 'what are you doing?' and I muttered something about Ashlee not being able to breathe under the covers. Thankfully, those dreams stopped just after I stopped breastfeeding.
Nappies on backwards - done that before too!
Got half way to our destination to realise we'd forgotten the nappy bag... Put the sterilizer in the microwave without the lid on... Put the sterilizer in the microwave and walked away without turning it on! And I don't know how many times I've lost count of how many scoops of formula I've put in a bottle. I only need to count to 4!!!!

oh and another one or two:
Putting the meat in the microwave to defrost so the cats dont get it and then forgetting and instead of setting up the timer i turned the microwave on and cooked the meat inside lol
Im also one that has the random dreams about suffocating or rolling onto ella when she doesnt even sleep with us. I even have been known to wake cory coz i was patting him and prying his arms open trying to find ella.

You know your sleep deprived when you can lose pretty much everything and anything when you have a clean house.
You know your sleep deprived when you wake up before your newborn.
You know your sleep deprived when your favourite TV show that your partner will give you peace to watch without interruption becomes naptime!
You know your sleep deprived when you wonder why the dog isn't coming to your call and you realise you're calling your babies name.
You know your sleep deprived if you have ever put clothing a bottle or a nappy on the wrong end of a baby.
You know you are sleep deprived when you are convinced that everyone else is crazy and you are the sane one.
You know you are sleep deprived when you say to your babycom "shhh, go back to sleep!"
I'm not so sleep deprived today!

I always wondered what the sterilizer would do without any water in it...! I always double check coz I never remember if I put water in it in the first place

I have had several dreams that Ashleigh is in our bed and I'm trying to find her! One night the cat was between my legs asleep and I thought he was Ashleigh - he must have got a huge fright when I tried to swoop him up!! And yip, never remember how many scoops of formula I have put in!!
