Baby math: Even though all the books say that a newborn requires a lot of sleep, the actual amount somehow seems proportionate to the amount of sleep that you don’t get. The more he sleeps, the less you get.

Of course discussing the difference between a ‘latte’ and an ‘americano’ at 4am with your 2 week old might be part of my problem. One thing I’m noticing as a new dad is that I want to explain everything to him, even though he just looks at me and gurgles.
