The baby arrives, and we hear from Mark about a challenging few weeks supporting his wife’s breastfeeding journey

Episode 3. Early days

Mark Gatto is taking six months’ parental leave to look after his new baby. In this podcast, we accompany him on his journey, as he applies for time off work, attends the baby’s birth, supports his wife through her maternity leave, juggles his work and domestic life, and spends time as a stay-home dad. Mark shares his story with Jeremy Davies from the Fatherhood Institute - a UK charity think tank which advocates for fairer, more father-inclusive parenting leave, and better support for dads from maternity and other family services.
