Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up!


Question: Becuase babies can get into a deep sleep in a split second even if they wake up frequently. You blink and they are asleep. So it means you had no trouble getting to sleep. I also think it could mean that parents always have to wake up for their babies through the night and if you slept like a baby its as if you were the baby for once and you didn't have to get up for anyone else. You were the one you got the sleep

because people are dumb and the statement is ironic.

I did sleep like a baby, woke up every hour on the hour....

Actually, that's not all babies. My babies both slept all night from the time they were born. Some people just got lucky that way. So, when I use the expression "sleeps like a baby", that means I slept all night long & peacefully. Thanks for the question.

ironic pun

babies sleep peaceful and warm on a comfty bed....
no worries to keep them up

slept peacefully.just like the baby does

because they were out of other metaphors?
i always say i slept well, or something along those lines.
i never say i slept like a baby, or a log, etc.
you get the point

WEll babys sleep a lot and they don't wake up easily so i guess thats why

I have no idea, its a metaphore kind of thing i guess????

i know i dont know when i was a baby (or so i was told) i slept all night long...x
