The New Dad Course
A baby's coming and nobody's told you what to do
Nine months of being told to just support her. What actually happens, what your job is, and how to be a good dad from day one.
About 2 hours, in 24 short sections. Do one a day or the lot in one go. Included in your membership.
By the end you'll have
- A birth day plan: your jobs on the day, her top wishes, and the questions you'll ask if things change
- A home ready list, with the car seat checked and a safe sleep space set up
- A fair night shift and chores plan, worked out with your partner
- A crying plan for the hard nights, including exactly what you do when you're at the end of your rope
- The signs of postnatal depression in her and in you, and the first step you'll take if you see them
- A plan to protect your relationship through the baby year
- The dad you want to be, written down, including what you'll keep and change from your own dad
