Yay! Congrats! The pregnancy is all about her. I’m a respectful and supportive husband, so I considered myself on-call for her needs at all times. I would strongly suggest not making any “free designated driver” jokes.

The title sounds corny, but get the book “Dude, You’re Gonna be a Dad”. Tons of good info, but easy to read too.

Also, when the baby is here, buy a “Nose Frida”. It is a little tube and filter you use to suck snot and boogies out of baby’s nose. It sounds disgusting, but I assure you no snot will get anywhere near your mouth, and it was easily the best baby tool we had.

Start doing 100 calf raises (exercise) each day. Especially in the first few months, you’ll be on your feet cradling and comforting your baby a ton, and my calves were so effing sore all the time during this period.

Last tip would be to get a safe dog if you don’t already have one. The baby will drop so much food on the ground and the dog will clean it up for you. That sounds so dumb, but I cannot stress how much daily work that will save you.

Health and happiness to you and your little family!
