Yesterday Iwas back at work for the first time. Two weeks have already gone since I became a father.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
It\u2019s amazing how fast time flies. It feels like it was just yesterday we came back home from the hospital. Sure we have accomplished many things. But still, many things are so brand new that I\u2019m not used to them yet.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Two things I have noticed:<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
    \n
  1. Susanna is an even more amazing woman than I ever could imagine. She takes care and nurses Ellinor all the time, sitting with her for hours at a time, total patient. She sleeps less than half of what I sleep and I don\u2019t really sleep enough. She has basically given up all of her own things, even if I try to give her some time to do things she just wants to do. (That\u2019s tricky, she has to sleep too).\n

    <\/span><\/li>\n

  2. I can take care of Ellinor. I thought I would have problems changing diapers, calming her down when she is crying or even carrying her. I can do all those things. I even like doing them. (Maybe that\u2019s the biggest surprise).\n

    <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    <\/div>\n
    Still we are not at routine yet. There are many things that will have to work better for us to manage in the long run.<\/p>\n
