On the other hand, night time is also when mama isn't quite as busy with
other children and housework. And by the time breastfeeding isn't as
interesting as other activities, they want to read all night... then
it's staying out late at night, or listening to music.
I don't know where we ever got the idea that human beings were supposed
to sleep at night. It certainly wasn't an idea popularized by the
mothers I know. :-)
