Hello I am about to become a new father. I was wandering if you could tell me some of the things I can expect after the baby is born. I mean I have dated women with children before and i lost a son to S.I.D.S.4 1/2 years ago but i never got that much time with the baby so I want to know any tips, hints, or any thing helpful that i might be able to use to my advantage with my new son by the way due date is june 28th 2007 I can't wait! thanks for any info you could give me. http://robertchristina.blogspot.com

Congrats to you, first of all! Sorry to be speaking in a Yoda like manner... Anyway, i'm a fahter to a 5 months old baby boy. The joy he brings is unspeakable. My advice to you is to enjoy the moment and soak it all up as the time comes. Be patiences (or have loads of them) and give your wife loads of TLC in the first few months. I guess it would be easier to give advice when the time comes, so i will be watching this space!

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. As a father of two (thankfully!) healthy children, I can't even imagine that kind of pain. My heart goes out to you. I won't bother telling you things like, "be involved" or "spend as much time as you can with them" because I'm sure those will come as nothing new to you. Instead, I'll give you a little practical advice that I like to give to all new parents-to-be... Do NOT buy brand-name diapers! The Wal-Mart (or whatever) brands work just as well and at up to half the price. I know from personal experience that a new dad only wants the very best for his little tyke, but take my advice on this one. If you want, spend that money you saved on other things for the baby. Or...sock that extra money away in a savings account for the baby's future. Babies don't care about designer labels. lol But everyone can use some extra money for college. ;)

becoming father is unique experience which bring happiness and joy in ones life.but most necessary thing is the responibility to teach the moral values of manliness in home.you are directly responsible what what your child do while he reachs to teenage.you must teach him religoius attitude to make him a true manking .other wise as in free evolution theory and unlimited freedom he will be less than an animal.

dear friend becoming a new father is really interesting and its really gods gift i had a baby girl on 27th november 2006 and i feel happy after i saw my daughter now she is 6 months old baby and daily i am playing 8-9 hours with her it is little bit pain to handle the such a small baby because we don't know what they want and when they want of course we will get guidance from doctors and our elders as well as our expirence of day by day activities
