Author Notes: Matt Coyne is a fortysomething-year-old graphic designer from Sheffield, England. September 2015, Matt's life was turned upside-down by the arrival of his first child, Charlie. After three months of fatherhood, he logged on to Facebook and wrote about his experience of suddenly having to live with "a furious, sleep-murdering, unstable and incontinent, breasts-obsessed, midget lodger." Within days, his post about surviving the first few months of parenthood became a viral sensation and was share all over the world. He continues to impart his parental triumphs and disasters on his blog, Man vs. Baby.
