Ask HN: Resources for how to be a first-time dad

Having 3 children: There is no magic secret. Sometimes you do great at something and sometimes you fail.

- read the book “Baby Wise”

- home is much more important than work or money. Do Not forget this.

- you wife will have a lot going on physically, mentally, and emotionally. Take as much of the “burden” as you can when the baby is first born.

- Do Not forget weekly date nights. I repeat...make sure you ALWAYS have weekly date night with your spouse. The child and your marriage will thank you for this.

- your wife has A LOT going on with her during pregnancy. Tell her daily that you love her, appreciate her, and thank her for being your wife. And...tell her she is beautiful every day - this is important.

- Your life will get A LOT busier. Share the house chore, and make time for each other.

- Children are a lot easier to raise compared to managing your marriage with a child.

- and last...have FUN! They grow SO FAST!
