I have my first child due very soon. It’s already been an internal oddysey for me during pregnancy and I’m aware that that’s just the beginning of it. But you lot are on the other side of the birth, so:

What should I understand right now to help me keep the courage and love to embrace this?

Also, a very humble request that you could spare a wish that our baby is born well. I really want it and anything might help!

Thanks!

    I have three kids and I think the most important thing for the first few days is to initiate the help. Don’t wait to change a diaper, check it. If you do formula, take the first few feedings. Let your partner get extra sleep if they can.

    When it’s time for you to go home it will be the weirdest feeling in the world. At no other point in life will you grow up so fast and feel like an adult. It’s normal and we are all doing our best, dint try to be perfect.
