She continues to explain how making sure she gets her naps in has become increasingly difficult as she adds more children to her family.

“With the first pregnancy, it was just me. So I could take naps, sleep all day, you know, I had nothing priority for me to do,” Brittany explained. “Then, with Bronze, it was like, ‘Well, I have to take care of this kid but I’m tired,’ so I would just nap when she napped.”

She continued, “Now I have two kids to take care of, but they do nap at the same time, so I’m able to nap with them. But I am definitely a little bit more tired. Some days I wake up and I’m feeling absolutely horrible.”
