-Baby might not really bond with dad until it's like 2 that's ok. A lot of that time dad is just moms replacement. But baby will get a good bond with dad if they spend time together.

  • Make sure dad has space and ability to figure out how to take care of baby. Not just copy what mom does but figure out how they can do things. Helps dad to feel like it's his baby and he can be good at things too.
  • Staggering baby leave - like 2 weeks initially then more leave months later when mom goes to work - can be helpful with that too.
