1. Dad gives advice to other dads: be her dream husband!
A fact of life: a new baby will suck the sleep from your life. Every new parent has been jolted into this reality especially moms. Which is why one dad is getting a lot of love online for urging other partners to be the “dream husbands” of their wives!
The unnamed father posted a photo on Imgur showing him, his newborn and his wife in bed at home. Snuggled up together, his wife is happily slumbering away next to him. The photo is touching and adorable on its own (we're digging the skin-to-skin kangaroo care going on in the picture!), but the caption takes home the prize.
He starts with, “After winning a battle with testicular cancer last year we finally got our firstborn son.” Then, dad drops this “pro tip” for dads everywhere, “Real men take care of their baby while mommy takes as many naps as she needs,” he writes. “She's been through an ordeal! Suck it up guys and be her dream husband!” Take note, dads. (Source: Refinery29)ADVERTISEMENT - CONTINUE READING BELOWWhat other parents are reading
