What does Mom really want for Mother's Day?
It doesn't have to be something elaborate or expensive.
According to a new survey, Mom just wants to sleep!
43% of Moms say a night of uninterrupted sleep would be the ideal gift.
And 64% say more sleep would help them be a better parent.
Especially new Moms, who only average 4 hours sleep... and get up an average of 4 times a night with the baby.
I remember those nights. And when the kids were toddlers, I'd hear the whoosh-whoosh sound of diapers as they walked into the bedroom, tapped my arm and said "Mommy." (Don't think they ever went around to the other side and said "Daddy.")
The survey says the average Mom isn't likely to get a good night's sleep until their kid turns at least four.
And I can tell you from experience those sleepless nights return once they get their driver's license and/or head off to college.
