Helpful guide for New Fathers from the perspective of a male nurse. This is a simple description of what to expect after your baby is born. Information presented from a male prospective. Without long complicated medical wording, it is a simple as I can make it.





Planning ahead will help in many ways. Prepare for baby’s arrival. You can get some experience with children by visiting a friend with children. If you can spending time with a newborn would be best. Have your friends coach you on how to hold the baby, pick up and put it down the child. Learning to change some diapers would help also. Get to know the baby's cues for expressing the desire for the need it wants to have met. Getting some experience on what to expect and how to care for your baby will help a lot with any anxiety you may have after birth. Babies have simple and basic needs. It wants food, safety, or comfort. It will become natural and much easier with time and practice.

Once your baby arrives take time to get to know it. Its moods and needs. Babies will communicate its needs by crying. Remember it has only one word to say I’m hungry, scared, angry, and uncomfortable, has a dirty diaper and anything else.
Try not to worry, before you know it you will be able to tell what they are by the look on your baby's face. Just like mom you will have a learning curve. It will take some time.
