VIDEO: Why babies make the WORST sleeping companions

Nostril-poking, hair-pulling, eye-gouging - try sleeping throught all that.

Eye-gouging, hair-pulling and farts to the face - underneath a baby's adorable exterior lurks a mini-sadist.

Just watch this video made by Esther Anderson as she demonstrates what happens when she tries to get some shut-eye with her (very cute) little monster beside her.

Esther explains:

"Every morning my baby sleeps in my bed with me for a couple hours after she wakes up to eat. And every morning I ask myself why I didn't just put her back in her crib....so this morning I grabbed my cellphone and recorded what my baby alarm clock looks like. I think I'm not alone in this..."

She has an uncanny ability to aim right for the eyeball or nostril. Ouch.
