Agreed, "sleep when the baby sleeps" is the advice we got the most, but doesn't really hold water.

With our first, my partner and I took turns napping or doing chores while the other was on baby duty. When the second came along, that advice was a joke, it was more like one parent per child and shower after the older one goes to sleep.
