Anyone have a theory as to why my LO does this? Re: Sleep

[xnmd1]

When ever someone comes around to visit (doesn't matter who it is) LO sleeps the entire time, even when it's normally one of his more awake/active times of the day. I've only got one friend whose even seen him awake.

Yesterday, we were with MIL and LO slept from 5 pm - 10 pm . He wouldn't even wake for a bottle (he usually feeds every 2.5-3 hours). he's also usually wide awake around 7 pm, but like usual, he slept right through because someone was over... then of course he went to bed 2 hours late, and now he's up for the day 3 hours early

anyone got any clue as to why he would sleep around company?

Fin is a bit like this! I think it's to make us tired mums and dads look like irrational liars

Maybe the background noise/chatting is soothing and helps deeper sleep?

it's got to be the noise.
OHs brothers are here playing football on the wii .. it's turned up all the way, they're cheering etc.
what's LO doing? well, he's been asleep in his swing for 3 hours
