When you become a mom you just learn how to function sleep deprived and you do get used to it. I came back to work when Finley was three months old and the first few months were rough. Then somehow you learn to exist on no sleep and now when he does upon occasion sleep through the night, which is like a full six hours, you’re pretty sure he’s suffocating. So you don’t sleep anyway.
Meaning of the quote
Being a mom can be really tiring. When you first have a baby, you have to learn how to do things even when you're very sleepy. It's hard at first, but you get used to it. The actress says that when she went back to work when her son Finley was 3 months old, the first few months were really difficult. But somehow, she learned to get by with very little sleep. Now, when her son sleeps for 6 whole hours, she even worries that he might be in trouble! So she doesn't sleep much anyway, because she's always checking on him.

I had a few fibroids removed, and they left me with a Grand Canyon of scar tissue in my uterus. The doctors weren’t sure I’d be able to reproduce. I was prepared for a rough road, and then out of nowhere we conceived.

My mother’s very proud of the name she gave me. She thought it sounded rhythmically better. It doesn’t really make a difference to me what people call me, but since my mother calls me Holly Marie when she’s angry, I prefer just my first name.

To stop smoking was actually really easy because I had already started to cut down. My husband is asthmatic, and he just can’t for the life of him imagine why anybody would put smoke in their mouth, so he really helped me to start cutting down.

I printed a list of Irish names from the Internet and my husband, Dave, saw Finley on the list. I really liked it but didn’t want to scare Dave off with my enthusiasm. So I used a little reverse psychology and let him think it was his idea.
