Stop trying to work on weekends. It's useless. Your wife will get pissed. You will get frustrated. And you will not even enjoy your kids. Weekend is now equal to "wife + kids". Enjoy :) ... and congrats!!! π₯³
Congratulations and keep your head up, both at the same time π€£
congrats! exciting times! can't recommend enough these two books: - a.co/d/fuZ2xCp - a.co/d/d2HZa5v
Love the kid. Unconditionally. And... You can do this.
congrats! donβt fight the kids schedule if you donβt need to. napping with a baby is one of lifeβs great pleasures
Congrats! You'll figure it out! Do what works for you and your fam.
Congrats! You're better equipped to be a parent than you'd expect. -Go with the flow and support your partner -Sleep whenever possible, srsly! -Don't compare your baby's habits to others -Buy a noise machine & Dr. Brown's bottles -All the shows/movies you've wanted to watch...now you can (late night/early AM shift)
Know 1. Youβll learn a lot 2. Dadcaster is here for you π§’
Congratulations! Fatherhood is a wonderful thing. I found "Happiest Baby on the Block" very useful in the early days. https://www.amazon.com/Happiest-Block-Revised-Updated-Second/dp/0553393235 #1 thing to know βΒ do what's right for your family and child. Everyone will have advice and judgements, ignore the noise.

Youβre at the top of the hill on a rollercoaster. My best advice is to let go and enjoy the ride β¦
Well, since I have not become a father yet, I don't know π
Wow Mazal tov! Its like crypto, most of the time you have no idea how it works and whats going on , but you just accept and enjoy it
you are blessed (and partially cursed oh how much trouble the child will be π but mostly blessed β€οΈ)
My friend gave me the best advice I've ever heard: Everybody will try to give you the best advice on how to be a great parent, and they are all wrong. You will figure out what works for you and your family. π₯
Telling and showing your child what you want them to do is better than saying βnoβ or telling them what not to do. It will take practice on your part. It will help them see the possible in all situations.
Listening is good, but don't be afraid to tell _anyone_ other than your partner to go fuck themselves with their opinion. The Snoo is worth it. Get a new one on sale, the o rings on a used one will fail and it's an 8 hour repair. Get a fisher price rocker swing. Join your Facebook buy nothing group.
Congrats, my friend! I just dropped my oldest off at college. Just be present as much as you can... emotionally, intellectually and also physically (though quality beats quantity here). Also, introduce exotic foods early, don't judge other parents or parenting styles, and get ready for some extreme highs and lows.
Congrats! Having a kid will absolutely F up your life in the best way possible. The days are long but the years are short. Enjoy every moment, even though many will be tough!
congrats! it does get "easier" bc its so hard at first once the adrenaline wears off. stay πͺ 2 yrs in, i am obsessed. never thought that could happen to me.
