A mother with a rare condition that makes her sleep for weeks in a row has spoken out and revealed that she doesn’t recall giving birth to her son because she was asleep throughout the entire process.
24-year-old Jody Robson from Birmingham, UK, suffers from what she believes is Kleine Levin Syndrome. Despite not being diagnosed, the mother is positive she has the neurological disorder, as she sometimes sleeps for several weeks in a row.
As Jody claimed, her episodes are extreme and she has no memory of giving birth to her first child. In addition, she skipped out on several birthdays and Christmases due to the disorder.
“One moment I’ve closed my eyes and the next I’ve woken up and it’s two or three weeks later. I’ve missed holidays and my sister’s eighteenth birthday because I was in an episode,” the 24-year-old mum-of-two said.
As Jody added, it takes weeks for her to recover after waking up from a long nap.
“When people are talking nothing is going into my brain, so I just look at them weirdly. I wouldn’t wish it, anybody,” the woman said of her recovery stage.
“It upsets me because I don’t remember giving birth and it’s supposed to be a precious moment. I think that’s the most upsetting episode I ever had. It gets me emotional because I missed it.”
Fortunately for Jody, however, her husband Steven is always there to fill his wife in on all the details of the events she missed.
“I honestly feel that I am sleeping through my children’s lives,” the frustrated mother added.
“I have missed out on so much. The first year with your first child is really special and I missed out on it. I had seven episodes the first year Harley was born. I was asleep pretty much most of that year. It is very frustrating.”
