More Than Macros Ep 20: What to expect as an expecting Dad with Dr Michael Lloyd | Part 1


Listen Later

Calling all of our expecting fathers, new fathers and not so new fathers who need a refresh - if you're a dad or dad to be, then this is the podcast for you!

From a pharmacist providing primary care medicine with families, young adults and young children, to going on to study medicine (including a short stint in paediatrics while concurrently undertaking a diploma in child health) to more recently undergoing a six month term in child and adolescent mental health as part of his psychiatry training - there aren’t too many more technically qualified father’s than Dr Michael Lloyd, who's crowning and most important title is father to his beautiful two year old daughter, Mia. 

In Part 1 of this conversation, Dr Michael provides plenty of insights into: 

  • What to expect in the first few weeks of fatherhood
  • The change in relationship dynamics when a new member of the family is introduced
  • Why aiming to be a ‘good enough’ parent is a much healthier approach than striving to be the ‘perfect parent’
  • Dealing with the anxieties that accompany becoming a new parent
  • Having the difficult discussions about establishing boundaries with family and new babies

    and plenty more... so much more in fact, that we had to record a second part! 

Stay tuned!
