New parents often struggle to find time to go out of the house. In this Instagram video, a new mom has to brainstorm a lot when she gets invited somewhere. She tries to figure out her baby’s sleeping schedule, doing some quick “nap math,” but things do not go her way. In the caption, the mother jokes, “One of several reasons why I never leave the house.”
New mom shows how ‘nap math’ works when getting invited on an outing in video
In a parenting video on Instagram, a new mom proves how “nap math” helps her figure out if she should leave the house or not. It begins with an onscreen explanation, which reads, “Moms doing nap math after getting invited somewhere.” Then, it shows her analyzing her baby’s sleeping schedule like a true math pro.
The clip begins with her in front of a bathroom mirror, trying to figure out if her little one “woke up at 7,” then he might go back to sleep “around 10.” Satisfied with the outcome, she turns around to leave the bathroom.
However, she suddenly remembers that it may not work as she has to leave around the same time. Furthermore, while holding a cookie box, she thinks her baby’s sleeping plan will get messed up if he goes to bed after she arrives home.
The mom then tries to find all kinds of possibilities that will fit her baby’s nap time. But she fails to find the correct solution. Her ordeal continues as she does her house chores and munches on some snacks. Finally, she figures out the only right answer that most new parents can relate to: “That’s it. We ain’t going.”
With over 133K likes at the time of writing, viewers found the video relatable. A user wrote, “Omg this is scary accurate,” while another called it “cute.” An individual also commented, “This is the realest video on the internet,” with a viewer stating that the “cookie and nap math is mathing.”
