The baby fell asleep on me for about 2 hours last night.
That was the first 2 hours I think I slept in the past 48 hours.
(You can tell by the way that I write the number "2" instead of the word "two" as I would usually do with more sleep.)
But the nurse came in and found us and told me it's dangerous to fall asleep with a baby on you.
I then realized it's the TOP instruction in their list of what to do with the baby. That list is on the bathroom door.
The top instruction is in BOLD.
I should take a picture of that list.
What if you don't go to the bathroom - then you don't learn how to take care of your baby? I'm unsure about their list-placing skills.
Meanwhile, all I can think of is a high school friend who used to fall asleep in a chair holding an open beer. He would never spill it, just hold it there the whole night.
If he can hold that beer, I can certainly hold a baby.
On second thought, maybe that's not the lesson to learn from his beer-holding prowess. Maybe there is no lesson. Maybe I just need sleep.
