Sleep 101: Understanding Sleep

Ever since the birth of my son seven months ago, sleep has been a luxury that seems to evade my wife and I. Everyone always says 'get as much sleep as you can before the child comes', but you don't actually realize just how much that's true until you have your first child. Going on seven months with little sleep has me wondering, just how much sleep can someone get and still function throughout the day, however some days, "function" is a very loose term for me.

Sleep is an important part of your daily routine—you spend about one-third of your time doing it.
