Bringing Baby Home: WHAT DADS CAN DO.

1. Straighten the house before Mom comes home. 2. Fluff the pillows on her bed. 3. Bring her something to drink while she is nursing (nursing can really make a Mom thirsty). 4. Run to the store for things she and baby needs. 5. Get dinner ready. 6. Soothe baby when he/she cries by holding or walking him/her or patting his/her back. 7. Massage Mom's back. OH YES........ 8. Answer the telephone. Turn the ringer down or off while Mom and baby are sleeping. 9. Control the number of visitors when mom and baby first come home ( BE THE BOUNCER, LOL). Tell those who ask how they can help, "We'd love a dinner for tomorrow night." Or, "How about doing our laundry?" (Won't know till you ask).
