Day-time Nap: Defintion

Day-time Nap

1. A period or 1 or more sleeps taken by a baby or young child during which the mother may also rest or take the opportunity to race around the house attempting to complete a multitude of tasks.

2. A period of intense and angry screaming undertaken by a baby in his cot. During which the mother may also rest or take the opportunity to race around the house attempting to complete a multitude of tasks, all the while her stress levels building somewhat like the pressure in a volcano due to erupt. Screaming will last until child is removed from cot.

3. A period or 1 or more sleeps taken by a baby or young child during which the mother is stuck underneath the sleeping child who will awake and exhibit angry screaming if laid down in cot. But will sleep for periods of MORE THAN 3 hours if allowed to rest in mothers arms. Leading to extreme frustration and a complete lack of tasks accomplished on the part of the mother.

4. A period or 1 or more sleeps taken by a baby or young child. Nonexistent in some families.

We fall into the latter 3 have not seen No. 1 on the list in weeks.
