i've been extremely sleep deprived lately mostly on account of our 8-month old daughter, who's no longer sleeping throughout the night.  on several occasions, i've fallen asleep in a chair feeding her and my wife says that she nudged me awake and carried on a conversation with me and that i then fell back asleep.  i have no recollection of the conversation.  how likely is it that i can open up my eyes, carry on a conversation, and still be in a light stage of sleep?

Sounds scary Mike.

Is there anyway you and your wife can take turns sleeping so that you can get more sleep? Say one night you be in charge and the next she be in charge?

Be sure to practice good sleep hygiene as well -- meaning no staying up until all hours of the night if the baby is sleeping try to go on to bed and catch a few winks while she is.

Know that this too shall pass. :)
thanks guys. can anyone provide scientific support for the proposition that a person can talk and have his/ her eyes open, seemingly engage in conversation . . . yet still be asleep?
thanks j n k. i'm going to show my wife this information. i guess the next question she'll have is if i'm properly treating my sleep apnea, why am i sleeptalking?
