Evolution does not apply to the individuals, but the population as a whole.
I'm thinking years and years ago, when the main job of women was to continue a family line by making and raising children, women who were better at hearing a baby cry while they were sleeping so they can tend to it did help the population evolve, because if the baby was in serious trouble or just did something that lead to it injuring itself, the baby might die (as back in the day paper cuts were lethal)
This is important because if the baby dies due to the mother not hearing its cries, the population just took a little hit. So, women who were more keen on hearing these things were more preferred by mother nature, and thus, due to a subtle version of survival of the fittest, had this trait passed on as a dominant trait in human females.
So, it may still be a trait carried around today, even if many individual females aren't raising children or anything-- it's just like a trait that isn't used, like the tailbone. .x./
