This week we have the new seasons first Dad's Diary episode where I speak to Ben, father of 4 month old Indiana. We discuss the build up to birth, his advice to other dads and his experiences during his fiancé's caesarean section as well as coping with the after care. It was really interesting getting his honest take on things and I am sure his points will be extremely helpful to expectant and new dads.
In this weeks episode we are celebrating 1000 followers and counting on our socials by reliving the best bits from our top 5 rates episodes with clips. It was so much fun re-listening to some of the best stories so far and I cannot wait to hear more over the coming months.
In this weeks episode I talk to return guest Roland to discuss our sons starting nursery. We chat about how we decided our sons were ready to take this next step, how we picked our respective nurseries and how our families coped with the settling in process in our new day to day lives.
This weeks episode sees my first solo podcast where I answer questions sent in to me by listeners from around the world on some key Dad/parenting situations. With questions about preparation for fatherhood, bonding with your baby and dealing with negative comments from other parents, you wont want to miss this one!
In this weeks episode I am joined by friend of the show Alex and we discuss travelling with our babies for the first time. Both of us have gone overseas on holiday recently for the first time and we get into the nitty gritty of what you need to know about planning for your kids first time in airports, on flights and in new countries. We talk through our experiences and answer some of your questions posted on Instagram. I hope this helps give you the confidence to start thinking about travelling with your little one or help plan your upcoming adventure.
On this weeks episode I am joined by Aidan from@revolution_you to discuss his course and passion for new and future dads on how to be in the best mental health space in order to have a greater impact on your kids lives. We have quite a raw discussion where he talks about his struggles with mental health and fatherhood and how he has turned his life around and ignited his passion for training other dads. Enjoy!
On todays episode I speak to Gordon the creator of Mantenatal courses for fathers to be. We chat about his journey in fatherhood with his four children and how he felt traditional antenatal courses were not focusing enough on the partner in order to prepare them for whats to come. We talk about the benefits of his course and how he can help you "be a the best dad you can be".
On this weeks podcast Alex returns with more advice from his experience as a primary care giver. We discuss my sons current weening program and how to baby proof the house. Alex gives great advice having been through these stages with his twin girls. Enjoy.
This was such an interesting episode to record as there is so much conflicting and saddening information out there on how, if or when a baby should sleep "through the night". It was really good to hear a certified sleep coach talk about how no baby is the same and neither are their sleep patterns. Helens approach is responsive a parenting and showing methods to help encourage the babies natural bodily function (sleep) and not to try and teach a skill because sleeping just isn't one. She dispels some of the myths around sleep training and informs us of the negative side of the industry and how to educate yourself and find the best consultant for your baby. Hope you enjoy.
