“Never wake a sleeping baby. This sounds simple enough, but when my oldest was born I had this idea that he couldn't go to bed unless he was in his pajamas. Even if he fell asleep in the car or in my arms, I would try to put his pajamas on. I usually woke him up, and it was a lot harder to get a tired, cranky, screaming baby back to sleep.” —bergenmom
