Some friends use it with their kids and swear by it. I don’t like it. I find that going for a walk after dinner, no screen time 1 hour before bed, and some light reading works well.

yeah, lowering the screen time would help a lot.

reading on the other hand wakes me up more than anything, so i’d have to pick like a really boring book 😂

😂😂 yes, boring books are key.

😂😂 anything to recommend?

dictionary?

😂😂 maybe?

either that, or i’ll become the next eminem 😂😭

I’ll nominate you for nostrs manual spell checker, or maybe we can have one of those spelling bee competitions 😂

hahaha a nostr spelling bee 😂😂 yes please

Interesting. Reading makes me very sleepy - but only with books, not screens.

I also fall asleep super fast listening to podcasts.

Generally speaking I fall asleep easily no matter what. I can have a full cup of coffee and sleep 5 minutes later 😂

I think this is an “affliction” that most parents with young kids suffer from. I was going to offer him two of mine to get him back on track, but my wife said three, with us keeping the best one! 😂

😂 exactly. If you can’t fall asleep, have some kids 😂 😂

My soon wife is scared to have kids because i sleep so easily and so deeply 🫠

the second part of this is so true..

i have literally slept on without blinking with my iPhone alarm blasting next to my ear for a solid 30 minutes 😂

It will be your superpower. Your wife will be jealous, because momma bear instincts kick in and they can hear a pin drop a mile away.

Can’t count the number of couch naps I’ve had with my kids sitting on me. You’ll be fine. 😂

I’ve only dropped two out of four. Funny enough, the two that fell are the smartest….

Shakes all the right things loose. 😂

😂

Ser are you listening to tool’s whole discography on shuffle 🫨

😂

Usually in album order. Sometimes you need a little chaos. 🤙🏻

I live too permissionless to allow you to allow it. 😜

your daily disallowance has arrived 😂

“why did you have kids?”

lack of sleep

“what do you wish was different now that you have little kids?”

some sleep pls

😂 after our second I stopped buying books because I could never finish them. Now, I just sign them out from public libraries. Late fines are way cheaper! 😂

Kids will exhaust you to the point of easy sleep. I’ve found just borrowing them works fine. Haven’t had my own yet.

And the able to return them part is a nice bonus too. 😂

I kinda want one to keep. Worried I may accidentally pull a Liz Lemon soon. Hold someone’s adorable baby, close my eyes for a second, and then be like oh shit how’d I get home with someone else’s baby!?

They’re the freakin best honestly. Recommended.

😂😂 remind me not to let you babysit, or maybe I should 😂😂

Depends on the day, right?!

Or time if the day 😂

😂 she just lives in our houses, drinking coffee and waiting for our kids to wake up

If you want to discuss night nanny wages I’m willing to talk. You can sleep in. You could also wake up to a home cooked breakfast. Fresh coffee. I’ll keep the kids entertained until you’re ready for the day. Kids will be dressed and I’ll let myself out like a magical little fairy.

😂 this could work.

It might work until you find out how much people have paid for nanny services. 😂

Oh, don’t tell me! I’ll keep grinding it out.

I was told the fee was coffee?! 😬

You were given bad information. I rarely drink coffee.

yeah, screens keep me wake aswell

the killer is that i get impatient when i don’f fall asleep in like 15 minutes. i crave stimulation so i pick up my phone again, and there it goes… 🫣

Yeah, shouldn’t you already be asleep?

Just move to NA 😂

busy being a ‘content creator’ 🤣

A content content creator.

not content

A not content content creator.

😂

A discontent creator?

A malcontent creator?

🤯

would you rather be content with lack of content or discontent about the content created?

🤔

Content with lack of content.

Hmm… well if I was discontent about the content created, it may motivate me to create content with which I would be content.

better content => more content

worse content => less content
