Kids, they NEVER sleep when you want them to. And when they eventually head off to the lovely land of nod, they end up in the most hilarious contortions. One minute they're wired to the max, legging it around the place like little wildlings, using their vocal chords in the only way they know how – loudly – the next, they're like narcoleptics, collapsing in a state of exhaustion whenever and wherever they damn well please. We asked you to send pics of your little munchkins dozing in the most precarious places, THIS is what they got up to: 1. Why go under the covers when you can go on top of someone?? Right, Bridget Fisher Whyte? Bridget Fisher Whyte 2. Must sleep, RIGHT NOW. Thanks to mum, Aileen Cooper aileen cooper 3. Upside down works too, thanks, Anna Kelly? Anna Kelly 4. On all fours, all snuggly, sure why not. Thanks Charlene Keenan Charlene Keenan 5. Ready for wake-up time or sleepy time – whichever, thanks Claire Gillanders Claire Gillanders 6.
