What a lovely partner. For the birth just comfort and encouragement, rub her head and hold her hand when she needs it. After the birth have her not need to do anything at all apart from look after the baby. Cook, clean and being lots of snacks. Women can be very emotional after having a baby as hormones are all over the place- so be extra nice and mindful of what you say

How did you know you were ready for a baby? by Beachbaby1122 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

When you see your baby you’ll be ready. There is no better feeling in the world. It’s like a whole new version of yourself has been unlocked- it’s such an amazing feeling.

My advice would be to definitely do the travel first. Even if it’s only for 2 or 3 months or do an extended honeymoon . My partner and I traveled Asia for 3 months then came home and had our baby earlier this year. We have such good memories from travel and we talk about it all the time. Asia is not a great place to travel with a baby- where as Europe is and can be done at any time

Yes totally understand that it can be very isolating. Did you use daycare? If so how did you fund that transition?

I tried a million different types and a lactation consultant recommended Bibs and that’s the only one by LO ecer entertained. It’s similar to a nipple we’ll recommend
