Dads: what else should you be doing?

Оглавление

When you are sent home, once you have stopped sobbing you could:

 Email family and friends: have a ‘group’ set up, and just fire off the baby-arrival message.

 Sleep–it’s your one chance. There will be little of it when your baby gets home.

 Tidy up, so your partner does not come back to a bomb site.

 Fit the baby seat in the car and understand how to clip it in and out and buckle it up efficiently.

 Go to the shops: get basic supplies for home like bread and milk, and also the biggest bunch of blooms you can get your hands on (take to the hospital!) Hospital food is gruesome so take her some food too–a few treats, healthy snacks and even simple meals (fibre-rich foods like dried or soft fruit is good).

 Zoom back to the hospital–don’t leave her alone with the baby for longer than absolutely necessary.
