00:00Guys, I've done a lot of weird shit for Refinery, but this is definitely the weirdest thing I've ever done.
00:08Hey guys, I'm Ashley, and for the next three days, I'm going to sleep just like a baby.
00:13I love to sleep. It's one of my favorite activities.
00:16My sleep is incredibly important to me.
00:21So I'm finding out right now the things that I will have to do before I go to bed each
00:27night for the next three days.
00:28Number one, I'm going to have to drink warm milk before bed.
00:33Am I supposed to be doing this during the challenge?
00:36I have to do it. I'm going to be looking like a dumbass drinking from this.
00:42The second step is to swaddle myself in a blanket, which I may have to pull a Cinderella and invite
00:48the birds and the rats and the mice in to help swaddle me since I live by myself.
00:52I'm figuring myself as a little burrito.
00:54You know, like, oof.
00:56Number three, I need to be sung to sleep with a lullaby.
01:01The next thing I have to do is have a consistent bedtime for the next three days, which is probably
01:06going to be a little bit of a challenge for me, as I don't like to have a bedtime.
01:10Number five, my thoughts were correct, and I'm going to have to suck on a pacifier.
01:17Okay, sucking on a pacifier. We're going there.
01:20This is a nipple. After hearing all five of these rules, I think that things are going to get a
01:26little weird.
01:27So follow me for the next three days as I sleep like a baby.
01:35Normally, I would go to bed anywhere between 9.30 and 11.30, depending on what time I get home
01:41from work.
01:42With this challenge, I'm going to try and go to bed at 10 o'clock every single night on the
01:46dot.
01:47And I believe that this is meant for the bottle of milk. My dogs are very interested.
01:59This bib is designed for a baby's neck, not a man's neck, and it is suffocating me.
02:06I already feel weird. I already feel weird drinking out of this thing. Okay.
02:11I'm trying to think about how babies drink.
02:15Like how I've seen my nieces drink. Maybe that, like...
02:18Hey, everyone. I'm about to get swaddled by my roommate now.
02:25Okay, so I think I'm kind of swaddled.
02:28I have to have one arm out so I can film.
02:31You're going to get that under the toes.
02:37I'm not an adult.
02:38Sucking on a vinky.
02:40For Christ's sakes.
02:42Like, this is not made for an adult mouth.
02:58I do kind of feel a little bit more well-rested than I was originally feeling.
03:05Hey, everyone. I've just gotten through my first night of the sleep like a baby challenge.
03:11Um, at some point in the night, I burst out of the swaddle.
03:18I'm still tired, man. I'm still going to make you sleep.
03:21Last night, I honestly got a great night's sleep.
03:25Um, tonight, I am not looking forward to doing the pacifier again.
03:29I'm babysitting right now, and I always, like, get a little bit jealous of the baby when they have their
03:37little milk.
03:38And guess what? Tonight, I get to actually be the baby and drink the milk.
03:44I don't know. It's hidden my lips warm, but it's entering my mouth cold, which is a unique thing for
03:50me.
03:53I woke up a lot last night, more than I usually do. Um, I don't know if that's a direct
04:00correlation to sleeping like a baby challenge, or if it's just, like, stress.
04:04I got a great night's sleep last night.
04:07So weird sucking on that damn pacifier.
04:11Day two of the sleep like a baby challenge was good. Uh, the lullabies were super effective.
04:18I feel pretty rested. I'm not feeling very tired, um, so that's great progression, I think.
04:25I'm really wondering if, like, after I finish this challenge, if I'm going to go back to being exhausted every
04:30day,
04:31or if maybe, just maybe, like, this has changed my sleeping patterns, like.
04:38I don't like the swaddling. I don't know what it is. It's just uncomfortable and hot.
04:43To be honest, I really don't want to go to bed. Um, I'm feeling a little bit comfy.
04:50Um, mostly feeling just, like, hanging out, but, you know, I gotta go to bed, I gotta get up early.
04:55I really like just staying up late.
04:58This is the last time I will ever be sucking on a pacifier.
05:01Ever again. This is not an ideal experience.
05:05Well, have a good night, y'all. Bye.
05:09So, just in summary, didn't like being swaddled, didn't really like the, the milk, but did enjoy the lullabies.
05:17All in all, not a routine that worked for me. Uh, probably not going to continue any of these things.
05:23But it was certainly an experience, and, uh, it was very weird.
05:27Maybe I've become more of a baby from this challenge, but, uh, I'm really glad that I don't have to
05:33suck out of this thing anymore,
05:34because, honestly, like, it gives me a whole face workout.
05:38So, I think we should all, as a whole, try and make our routines better, try and switch up our
05:44routines, just in general, so we're keeping things new.
05:49Having a solid bedtime is one of the most important things I learned from this, and I will definitely be
05:55taking that to heart.
05:56I think the challenge overall was a success.
06:00Thanks so much for watching, guys, and have a great day, weekend, week, whatever it is.
06:07Have a great one. Bye.
