It wasn’t but a couple of generations ago when not only was there was little expectation of support from the father during labor and delivery, but it wasn’t even necessarily a foregone conclusion that he would even be present at all for the birth.

These days have long since passed, and new fathers are increasingly yearning to take a much more active role both in the birth room and after baby has arrived. While there are countless resources out there for new moms, there are very few available for new dads. As a result, many new or soon-to-be fathers still feel inadequately prepared to support their partner through the trials and challenges of labor, and many feel equally as concerned about their capacity to take care of their newborn once they return back home.

As a birth and postpartum doula, a Lamaze certified childbirth educator, a Blooma certified prenatal yoga teacher, and a longtime nanny, there are few things that I love more than helping new fathers to feel better equipped to support their partners during pregnancy, preparing them to take a more active role during labor and childbirth, to confidently and competently care for their newborn, and perhaps most significantly, to recognize and embrace the vital and immeasurable power and benefits available in establishing significant opportunities for bonding between dad and baby beginning even before birth.
