As a father, I spent an astounding amount of time in the first month of my kids' lives caring for them, and then also caring for my wife.
If the father is going to spend 12 weeks with the newborn and the new mother, you can bet your ass that they're likely not sitting around playing CoD or watching TV. I basically did everything except for breastfeeding, and it was freaking exhausting.
Non-parents have no idea how lucky they are to be able to have a spouse that has slept more than an hour a night for the past month.

The guys I knew who said they were the primary did it so they could help their wives and were happy they did. Some of the guys who opted just for the two weeks said it wasn't enough, they wanted more time to spend with their newborns.
