Sleep while the baby sleeps

Yeah, that's not going so well. It's what everyone advises, but in the six weeks since Jakob was born, I've taken precisely two naps. Not because I haven't wanted to sleep, but because there's so much to do and because he tends to be alert in the afternoon, which is when I most feel the need to nap.

Even in the hospital, I was told to rest up, but there was the parade of non-medical visitors. So no success there, either.
