    My oldest was terrible as a baby. I finally understood why people shake their babies to death. Sleep deprivation is used as torture for a reason.

      So much this. Nothing enrages me or cuts short my fuse as much as depriving me of sleep. A tip for new parents: a crying baby is a live baby; walk away and let them cry if you need a reset.

        Yes, absolutely. If you just cannot handle it anymore, put the baby on the floor and leave the room to breathe.
