catsaway: coma is a word taken from the greek work koma meaning state of sleep, baby is a universal word for sleepless nights and smelly nappies so personally i'd still rather sleep like a coma victim than a baby . . .



But you are putting yourself in the place of the parent, not baby?
The baby might wake up during the night when hungry but when when it sleeps it sleeps very well. Not a care in the world and gets heavy and restfull sleep. By your arguement you could say i slept like a completely paralyzed person? Just cause they are not moving and communicating does not mean they are in a restfull state?tongue tongue

Actually I usually would have had a google at the word but I actually knew what it meant from an episode of QI plus i'm using my phone to chat here so can only open one page at a time. . . . So stick that in your pipe and smoke it smartass. . . tongue

The hag........its when you wake up but you cant move your body, somepeople freack out andd think that there is someone in the room holding them down...hence the name.

I suffer from it, its awful but i never see anyone in the room so thats a blessing.

When you sleep you body releases hormones to paralise you in your sleep ....so you donr act out your dreams, well 'The Hag' is when your mind wakes up.........but your body is still asleep.

and the worst thing, when it happens you're scared stiff, and then your mind drifts off into a state of semi-sleep, but fully aware and terrified that its going to happen again - which it does crying
