5 Funny Ways Sleep Deprivation Turns Moms into Comedy Gold
Let’s face it—being a sleep-deprived mom is no joke…except when it kind of is. Sleepless nights with little ones can make even the most “put-together” sleep-deprived mom feel like she’s starting in a reality show gone wrong. While exhaustion is no laughing matter, we can all use a big laugh to lift our spirits and embrace the hilarity of it all. These funny sleep deprivation stories are oh-so-relatable and highlight the chaos parenting brings when sleep is off track.
What Sleep Deprivations Looks Like for Real Moms
“I went to the restroom at work to pee. I sat down on the toilet, but something didn’t feel right. I realized instead of pulling off my pants, I took my shirt off. Sigh”
“I was unloading the dishwasher and I realized after about 5 minutes, I had been chunking all the clean dishes back in the sink instead of putting them away in the cabinet.”
“I went to the restroom at work. I stood up and lost my shit, I was wearing a long tube shirt and couldn’t find it anywhere. Finally realized I had pulled it up instead of down….”
“One time I poured my salad dressing into my cup of ice, laughed at myself, and then proceeded to put diet coke all over my salad.”
“Connected my breast pump without any bottles, sat down and turned it on. Took me 5 minutes to notice me and the bed where soaked.”
While it’s easy to laugh at the ridiculous things our sleep-deprived brains make us do, consistent rest is vital for your well-being. One mom shared this after working with me:
'Jessica is the sweetest and has sleep programs that meet your family’s unique needs. She helped us create a schedule that allowed everyone to rest. By day four, my baby was sleeping 12 hours a night, and I felt like myself again!'"
