for soon-to-be fathers (especially first timers): 1. it is impossible to not make mistakes. you are not perfect. your kid will have traumas. and that is perfectly fine. instead of avoiding them having traumas (which you can’t control), focus on healing -becoming consciously aware of- yours (which you can control). 2. the important part of the equation is the mother. focus your energy on providing what she needs to tap into the -mostly forgotten- innate and natural motherhood wisdom that is inherent in being woman. at the core of her being, she knows what to do. there is an intuition that is hidden behind layers of insecurities and fear. your mission is to help her feel safe, so that she can tap into that 3. reach out with vulnerability, expressing your own insecurities (especially to other men). the meme of “men don’t cry” is the most stupid invention of humanity 4. remember how to play, and practice that daily 5. buy stretch marks cream and rub her belly every night with tenderness what else?

9. Don’t worry if at the beginning of your fatherhood you feel like just a sidekick in the relationship between baby and parents. Yes, at the beginning you are just a blur and all that they care about is mommy, cause she is the one that breastfeeds and there is no competition to that. But, be patient. Your moment will come. All of the sudden, there will be some games that are only fun to play with dad. Believe me, your moment will come. And all of that is normal and healthy. While mom is on full time attention to the baby at the beginning, be sure to be her actual partner. Be there for the overnight breastfeeds. Bring her water. Bring her what she needs. Help with all that you can. You are both tired and it will pass, but you need each other to make it through as a team.
