I don't have kids (too young) but how can babies be so much work? Most of the times they're sleeping, aren't they? That's what I've heard.

Newborns are utterly exhausting. Mom is a non-stop feeding source and newborns are constant eating machines. Every couple of hours (if you are lucky) round the clock, 24/7, for months on end. Nothing happens without the baby's schedule coming first, and life is HUGELY different with a baby than without. That's with a baby without any complicating factors such as colic or reflux to add to the exhaustion. Babies consume every bit of time and energy for a new parent.
