The answer to this question varies according to the age of the baby. Newborns, easily overwhelmed by their new surroundings, tend to nap frequently. They often have catnaps throughout the day, with a couple of longer naps in the morning and afternoon.

"They told me at the blood bank this might happen.""This is just a 15-minute 'power nap' like they raved about in the last time-management course you sent me to.""Whew! Guess I left the top off the correction fluid.""This is on of the seven habits of highly effective people!""I was testing the workstation for drool resistance.""Darn! Why did you interrupt me? I'd almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem.""Someone must've put decaf in the wrong pot.""Boy, that cold medicine I took last night just won't wear off.""Ah, the unique and unpredictable circadian rhythms of the workaholics.""I wasn't sleeping. I was trying to pick up my contact lens without my hands."Source: "Best Excuses if you Het Caught Sleeping at Your Desk." (www.laughnet.net)
Feisty G, over at Mhm Yum!, has posted a nice guide to daytime napping. Though the specifics are tailored toward Northwestern students, her general guidelines are applicable to everyone.Oh, the nap! What a delightful gift to the college student! It is the opportunity to rest one's eyes in any number of locales and for many ranges of times. Today I will discuss some good places on campus for a decent nap, and some other sleepy strategies.Read the rest of her piece at Mhm Yum!: The Nap.
Researchers say they have developed a simple test that can tell if a person with heart disease is likely to suffer a heart attack. The test measures levels of a protein in the blood. The researchers say people with high levels of this protein are at high risk of heart attack, heart failure or stroke.Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo of the University of California in San Francisco led the team. For about four years, they studied almost one thousand patients with heart disease.The researchers tested the heart disease patients for a protein called NT-proBNP. Patients with the highest levels were nearly eight times more likely than those with the lowest levels to have a heart attack, heart failure or stroke.The researchers say the presence of high levels of the protein in the blood shows that the heart muscle is under pressure in some way. The study involved mostly men, so the researchers could not say for sure that the results are also true for women.They say the patients with the highest levels o
Napping Armenian Girl 3.5 x 3.5 WatercolorThis is B, napping on my couch after dinner, when all the adults were on the patio, sipping cognac and smoking cigars, or around the table, talking over tea and dessert. She's too old to play with the little ones, and not old enough to be interested in adult camaraderie, so she watches a movie or draws sweet little pictures. She fell asleep watching cartoons, so I photographed her, suspended in the din of familial conversation.
Now that I know how to post pictures (if only I knew how to get them OFF my camera, we'd really be in business), here is Misa's brother, Nico, doing what he does best, napping. Nico often sleeps on Lou's pillow next to me. They know. Animals know, don't they?
The folks over at the University of Wisconsin have created a “power napping machine”. Apparently, all you have to do is strap on a device and you can squeeze in about 8 hours of sleep within 2-3 hours! I could definitely use one of these. Think of all the time I could save! Read about [...]
I've been really tired all weekend. I was so excited for yesterday, with all the St. Patrick's Day festivities and basketball, yet I could barely drag my ass out of bed. Even though I got up at noon and went to the gym, once I got home and got showered and dressed, I was tired and wound up taking a two-hour nap with basketball on the tv. After that, I had a short-ish telephone conversation with my mom, and a long-ish telephone conversation with my sister, where I expressed my very peculiar tiredness that was not relieved by all the sleep. My mom, in her infinite wisdom, said I shouldn't go out, since clearly my body is telling me that I need sleep.My sister, in her different kind of wisdom, said she's always tired and goes out anyway. Of course, I laughed and told her to take advantage of her twenties for the next 9 months!Since it was (a) a Saturday and (b) a partying holiday, I did wind up going out -- wearing my "Kiss Me I'm Irish" t-shirt -- but it was only with friends t
The one where I equate napping with WWE Cage Matches. You don’t ask me why I know about WWE Cage Matches and I don’t tell you Mr. Flinger watches WWE. You also laugh with my own idealogical plan of a quiet afternoon. And you do not tell me it’s ok for her to be sick or you eat poo. This all makes a lot more sense if you read the post.
