How deep does your baby sleep?

Neither one of my have a deep sleep, or atleast I don't think so. My mom was saying over the weekend how we would be somewhere & I would fall asleep. They could put me in the car, drive home, get me out, change my clothes, & put me to bed and I would never wake up. Some friends say that they can vacuum while their baby is asleep. I can't even pick my girls up w/o them waking up and if I do, they wake up as soon as their backs hit the car seat. Just wondering if they haven't reached the age yet, or if they are just light sleepers.

It depends - sometimes I can cough and they wake up and sometimes I am pretty sure I could drop them on the floor and it wouldn't wake them up!

 

I agree it depends on the day, the time, you name it... also I have am starting to remember my oldest as sleeping better than he may have too... perhaps your mom also "remembers" you as a baby a little differently than you really were!!!!!!!

 

My two would wake up if we fussed with them too much! My dd is absolutely petrified of the vacuum currently!

Jackie that is too funny! My oldest was afraid of our big green monster (our vacuum) until about 4! And now my littlest Patrick is afraid of it too!

 

I agree with the PP it all depends on the day and time. Theres sometimes I can't flush the toilet without waking them .

 

I think some of it depends on what they're used to. Since my babies are #4 and #5 and all of our kids are under 5 the noise level at my house most times is crazy. My babies could sleep through anything, people are always commenting on how well they sleep.

But with 3 older siblings, 2 dogs, a cat and me and DH they better be able to sleep through it or they'd never get rest

 

All my kids are light sleepers which makes nap time very hard with a loud 3 yo in the house
