First-time dads…

On June 20th it is Father’s Day, a day when we can appreciate and thank the dads and father figures in our lives.

Expectant fathers to be…

But what about those that are expectant fathers to be, obviously so much of the pregnancy is about mom , but our partners are often the unsung heroes during the pregnancy, supporting and helping us through the emotional days when we may be feeling worried, joining us at the antenatal classes and giving our backs and feet a good rub when they are aching.

So, we have put together a few tips of how to include the expectant fathers and make them feel part of the special journey that you are both going through.
