Being Dad!

What this episode covers

We talked about: How the pregnancies were for Stu and how he researched and prepared for each baby to come. How Stu doesn’t have any real experience with children – with his first child he was always learning and it was all a bit surreal! Having a second child and how this will change the dynamic from having a first baby. The key role that dad / the partner that isn’t carrying the baby plays. He couldn’t breastfeed, but contributed in other ways working as part of a family team! The thing that really stood out for Stu as a new dad? Whether he met and connected with any other dads? Stu’s experiences of having his first child during Covid. Stu’s advice for a new dad. How to handle any concerns and worries and the fact that everyone makes mistakes!
