The prize for the most rage inducing comment on the internet today must go to good old Joe here. Only 6 hours sleep a night. My heart bleeds.

Lol, he definitely takes the biscuit!

I'd love to hear his description of the birth and how traumatic it was for him.

I want to find this utter bellend so I can make his wife a cup of tea and run her a bath. I feel like she probably doesn’t get that a lot at home. Six hours? ODFOD

I mean 6 hours is quite a lot for me and I don't even have kids!

At least she didn't have any work to do in the morning though. Hmm

My God, he's completely fucking oblivious isn't he??

TransplantsArePlants · 13/08/2018 18:09

Surely he was joking???? Surely? Please? Six hours?!!!

6 hours sleep is normal for me. And I hold down a full time job. Where do I collect my medal?

UtterlyUnimaginativeUsername · 13/08/2018 18:03

Bloody hell. 6 hours of sleep is tonnes for a father of one newborn, never mind three!

dinosaurkisses · 13/08/2018 17:58

No more than six hours sleep.

God sometimes I’d love to wander through life with the entitlement of an average white man. Imagine what you could do with all that free time.

Dear mum-of-triplets: if you are reading this thread, LTB.

She didn't work...because she was caring for triplets!!! 6 hours sleep is nothing to complain about when you have one child and is some kind of miracle if you have three babies.
