I had no idea. My wife and I have three kids, and I was never so tired in my life. When my wife was nursing our second, my eldest boy was sick with the stomach flu. He literally was barfing every 10 minutes. I spent the night helping ol' pukey pants, then put in a long day at work.
My second but was susceptible to the croupe. He had it late one evening and I took him to the Children's Hospital for a four-hour wait. He was given Decadron, and the physician informed me that I had to stay up with him and not let him sleep for at least two hours. It was three a.m. at this point. That was a tough night, and the next day was I draggin' my butt.
