Guys do you get sleep paralysis? I started getting it after I had my baby. It's freaky as a whole but,today was the creepiest it's been. I sleep with my baby and it's not unusual for her to wake up in the middle of the night. up at four but she wasn't crying or breastfeeding so I just let her be. Then thats when I started drifting in and out of sleep. If you've had sleep paralysis before you know that you either feel or see a presence. I always see a tall male figure that's skinny and bald. It didn't happen once...I'd feel it and then it would go and I'd try to wake up and check on my daughter but it would be back closer ...and closer and closer...five times guys. When I was finally able to get up I looked at the time and it was 6:50am. I couldn't believe how long this had gone on for. My baby was still awake playing in the dark.
