Dads Get Real: The Most Surprising Thing About Fatherhood Is...

It’s almost Father’s Day and as we’re getting ready to celebrate dads, we decided to ask them a question: "What was the most surprising thing about fatherhood?" Some answers made us laugh and some made us swoon. Check out the answers here:

• “The uncanny ability of a young baby to poop immediately after a nappy change.” – Edwin P.
  
•  “All of a sudden developing ‘dad vision’ for all the things that could potentially harm or damage our new flesh ball.” – Stratton E.
  
•  "There is no comparing the all-consuming love you will have for your child with the love you have for any other person. Even the first moment I laid eyes on my daughter’s heartbeat on the ultrasound, I instantly fell in love with her. When she arrived and I held her for the very first time..... I broke down in tears.... holding her little hands as I smiled at her singing the same song I would sing to her in mommy’s belly…So my answer is love! I was surprised by how much I could love someone so much.”  Aaron L.
  
•  “How much more the baby wanted to be with whoever was primarily responsible for their food.” – Jon S.
  
•  “How incredibly fast our baby grows and develops. It seems like every day he’s changing!” – Zac I.
  
•  “Lack of sleep.” – Mark G.
  
•  “Most surprised that I don’t mind changing nappys at all, because it means more time with my little darling.” — @jschrein
  
•  “How much poop there is.” – Kevin M.

Se avete domande o preoccupazioni mediche riguardo vostro figlio o voi stessi, si prega di contattare il vostro fornitore di assistenza sanitaria. Il latte materno è la migliore fonte di nutrizione per i neonati. È importante che, in preparazione e durante l'allattamento al seno, le madri seguano una dieta sana ed equilibrata. L'allattamento misto (seno e biberon) nelle prime settimane di vita può ridurre la produzione di latte materno e la decisione di non allattare al seno può essere difficile da invertire. Se decidete di utilizzare il latte artificiale per neonati, dovreste seguire attentamente le istruzioni.
