Sleeping Like a Baby?
By Deanna Hope Berman, ND,CM,
A common expression, but what does it really mean? Most babies fall
quickly into a deep sleep, but wake every two to three hours to nurse.
Many of us sleep in a pattern similar to this, but this is not a normal
sleep pattern for an adult. Older children and adults require sound,
uninterrupted sleep for optimal health.
