It is no secret that both parents are needed for the full development of the child, and the role of the father in the upbringing is not inferior to the role of the mother. However, in the modern world, families are increasingly found, where the baby raises one mother, which over time has all the chances of "overdo the". So what to do if a child appeared in your family, and you want to be sure that your partner will cope with a new role? We will tell you how to help a man is rebuilt without prejudice to the psyche.
Give a man the opportunity to spend more time with the baby
If the nature of the woman provides affection for the kid even during pregnancy, then the man will need the time after the birth of a child to get used to the appearance of a nail lump. After your return from the hospital, let a man study the child, so he can distinguish it from other children and builds an emotional connection.
Touch is incredibly important
Many men are simply afraid to take on the hands of a newborn because of his tiny sizes - suddenly do something damage? Mildly explain to the man that it is completely nothing to fear, spend the master class, how to take, keep and rock the baby. Initially, a man can just lie next to the child, stroking him and stop being afraid to do something wrong. Give him time.
Trust a man's baby care
As it often happens, the woman is not sure that the man will cope with swimming / feeding / swaddling, and therefore it tries to do everything alone, periodically "chasing" a partner behind diapers or a bath. As we said, give a man more freedom to communicate with the child, let the daily swimming before going to bed will be a tradition, for example, dad comes from work and spends with a baby half an hour behind bathing.
Do not lose contact with your man
Of course, with the advent of the child, your marital life will change. Your task is to prevent it to break. The fact that you are parents do not cancel the fact that you are also two loving person. To maintain a comfortable atmosphere without jealousy of a man to your own child, spend alone, ask your relatives at least several times a month with the baby, and go on a date.
