How to Prepare for the Birth of Your Baby As a Dad with Dr. Brian Scull

In this episode of San Diego Health, host Susan Taylor and Scripps pediatrician Brian Scull, MD, discuss what dads-to-be (or any partner of someone about to have a baby) can be doing to get ready for their new baby. Dr. Scull covers parenting and childbirth classes, picking a pediatrician, babyproofing, parental leave, common concerns, and more. He also stresses the importance of being flexible, since babies aren't exactly known for sticking to their parents' well-intentioned plans. There's a ton of information available for moms-to-be on how to prepare for the arrival of a new baby. But what should soon-to-be dads be doing? There are lots of unknowns and new experiences in store for new parents, but there are also steps you can take to be as ready as possible for the arrival of your bundle of joy.
