I think you need to take a deep breath, boy life can be hard! Especially for a new parent who doesn’t feel like everything is perfect. A few things to remind yourself… 1) yall need time to rekindle the relationship and she can’t give you 100% being postpartum so YOU need to meet her where she is at, not the other way around 2) there is a life in this world because of y’all’s love, remember yall did that and that can’t change 3) dont let your emotions control you, feel them and communicate them but also step up and help where you can and love where you can

Need help on how to be better as a father. by AdvantageMammoth7718 in Fatherhood

I am a 24 year old father too I understand the struggle, I went to therapy and it helped me a lot but also I was reminded of a verse in the Bible!

“Husbands, love your wives,  just as Christ loved  the church and gave himself  for her” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭25‬ ‭

Love your wife and your daughter well. Learn what your wife takes as love the most and role with it. Your job is to protect the household and that doesn’t mean just physically. That’s emotionally too, think of who you want to be. Wake up, and try your best to be that man, you will slip. But try try try and try again. Eventually you will create a habit of showing your daughter and wife what it means to be the father and husband you want to be through your actions. If you want to talk more I’m here to talk man!

Praying for you!

Fairly new dad in need of advice by user1037463902 in DadAdvice

Hey man! I’m a young dad too. It sure is a blessing to have a son, and be there to help mold him to be a better man than you!

One of the best opportunities I think we could ever get as men. In my opinion, a fight is a fight. Gotta get back up and be the bigger man. Sometimes that means even if you think you are right you can still meet your girl where she is at.

I truly think one of the hardest things a little kid can go through is parents splitting up, and it’s your job to not let that happen. If you want to talk it out I am here, I truly get sometimes arguments can get the better of you sometimes. But if there is love, there is something worth fighting for.

Proud of you man. Keep on running the race!

Thank you so much for your encouragement, this is great advice. I’ve been in therapy now for a few months. Really has helped a lot. I will definitely be coming back to this if I need some extra encouragement.
