I don’t know how I missed this one, but Christine at Storked discovered there is a water that has the tagline “Zero calorie water puts moms to sleep.” Now, I know if I watch Charlie Rose for a couple of minutes I’m asleep, so I didn’t know there was a need to knock mom out, let alone with zero calories. Christine rightly points out that as a mom she feels she would be ready to be conscious should her young ones need her.
I think I would only feel comfortable taking an aid when I’m:
1) no longer nursing
2) in a hotel that night with kiddos taken care of elsewhere
3) on an overnight plane and super nanny is in the next seat watching my children.
I love the gutsy marketing of this water. I can imagine for such a crowded field they have to try something.
“Hmm, vitamin, done. Jennifer Aniston? Taken.”
I always say I have a cheap mouth. I drink tap.
Seems like it would be more helpful to have something to knock out the kids.

The thing is, I don’t think she’s being melodramatic at all – I think the idea of being unresponsive while my daughter is screaming in the next room is just unfair, unsafe, unsavory, bad parenting, and the sort of thing that jolts me awake from sleep while my husband still snores by my side.
who do you mean when you say “I don’t think she is being melodramatic”?
