Having a baby 'costs two months' sleep in a year', said The Daily Telegraph, reporting research showing that a third of new parents lose that amount of sleep in the first year. The research, from nursery products company Tomy, also identified Competitive Sleep Syndrome, where new parents argue over who has had less sleep, and compete with friends by bragging about how good their baby is at sleeping through the night. The Guardian reported plans for a national network of up to 4,000 after-school cookery clubs in England, if a new initiative by the School Food Trust can gain funding from the National Lottery or private sponsorship.
