sleep like a baby
Rest very soundly
To sleep like a baby is to sleep deeply and peacefully, without disturbance.
The phrase is slightly paradoxical—actual babies wake frequently—but captures the image of innocent, untroubled rest: After the hike, I slept like a baby.
Sometimes used ironically when someone slept poorly or not at all.
