Muhammed Nitoto sums up the answer to that new dad question 'what is there for me to do' in five digestible points
His next tip is to ask the mother if she can pump and then pick one feeding that he can take care of with a bottle. “Mom will take on almost everything and will burn herself out if you let her. At times you may have to force her to rest without worrying about the baby,” he writes. “This is an easy way to do that without a fight.”
While the next tip seems obvious, clearly it isn’t to some dads: Don’t put a time limit on how long mom breastfeed the baby. “It’s not just about feeding your child it’s about them bonding as well,” he explains. “I know everyone has a different [sic] length of time they will breastfeed and as a Dad it’s hard to fully understand. Do not I repeat DO NOT try and rush this process it’s not our place and it’s not safe. You will open yourself up to a fight you can’t win.
He also touches upon the fact that the newborn stage can be emotionally difficult for dads, because babies are so attached to mom the first few weeks. “Be patient,” he advises. “I know as a Dad the first few weeks we are equally excited and yet not as important yet. Your time will come faster than you know. Babies grow fast and the stronger bigger they get the more Daddy Time will be coming your way.” Muhammed is not only a brilliant man, but a sensitive one at that.
