Yes! All babies are good babies — but I for sure have empathy for parents with low-sleep-needs infants and toddlers. I need 8.5 hours a night to feel my best. One of my best friends has a baby who at 18 months still prefers 4-6 hours per night, broken into two sleeps. He will nap a couple of times during the day, too. He’s a good and normal baby! (And I would definitely need coping mechanisms if he were in my care).
The only babies that aren't good babies are the ones who are burning down houses and beating up old grannies... fortunately there doesn't seem to be too many bad babies out there
