Oh Really, Not Enough Sleep For Moms?
Find someone else to cook dinner, clean the house, go to work, feed the kids, get them ready for bed. I doubt most moms would want to give up all that - well maybe the cleaning part

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Half of U.S. mothers are not getting enough sleep and they believe getting more rest would make them better parents, according to a U.S. study.
A nationwide survey of 500 mothers by research firm Braun Research found 54 percent of respondents said they were not getting enough sleep.
Full-time working mothers were suffering the most with 59 percent saying they were not getting enough sleep. Half of the working mothers said they were getting six or fewer hours sleep a night.
Stay-at-home moms fared better with 48 percent saying they were sleep deficient.
