The 10 Classic Fights New Dads Have With Their Partners

Aug 27, 2024 | fatherly.com | Christian Dashiell

While a newborn is rightly billed as a bundle of joy, two things can be true simultaneously: For many couples, a new baby is also a powder keg for conflict, as they are forced to evaluate and negotiate how their latest addition will affect life moving forward. Between sleep deprivation, a lack of quality time with your partner, a steep learning curve, plus a brand new, intense love and all the pressure that comes with it — fights are practically inevitable.
Why Do Dads Love To Toss Their Babies In The Air?

Aug 27, 2024 | fatherly.com | Christian Dashiell

From our earliest days, guys are overcome with urges that cause others to raise an eyebrow or shake their heads. As babies and toddlers, we instinctively and mindlessly twiddle our boy parts. When adolescence sets in, we impulsively jump up to smack every door jam we pass under. And when we reach fatherhood, something deep inside us yearns to throw our babies in the air playfully. The paternal urge to toss babies is an outlier, as it runs antithetical to most parenting practices.
Tips For Surviving Sleep Deprivation With A Newborn Baby

Aug 27, 2024 | fatherly.com | Jen McGuire

My newborn son did not sleep for longer than an hour at a time. Ever. This is something I tell people and they chuckle and shake their heads affectionately like “Oh boy do I remember” which sort of tells me they do not actually remember. But I always will: The deep, underwater fog that followed me everywhere. The disconnect I felt with the rest of the world, with reality, with myself.
Ricky Bee Is Teaching Dads How To Be Men On TikTok

Aug 27, 2024 | fatherly.com | Evie Ebert

“If your baby mama breastfeeds, she might get a clogged duct once in a while,” Ricky Banzali says directly to the camera. He says he’s going to teach us two ways to solve this problem: “One of them is for boys, and one of them is for men.” He stops for a suspenseful beat, a chunky silver chain glinting over the collar of his buttoned-up henley, before panning to his girlfriend, Rachel, who is laid up in bed with pain she tells him — and us — is 10 out of 10.
How I Learned To Let Other People Hold My Baby

Aug 27, 2024 | fatherly.com | Andrew Burmon

The Italian word bombolotto doesn’t have a precise English translation. It means doll, toy baby, puppet, fat baby, happy baby, and all those things at once in a bouncy, onomatopoetic sort of way. It’s what the women on the street call out when they see something cherubic that must be pinched and clucked at until it gives up a giggle.

Jimmy Dean Breakfast Solutions Are The Morning Hack You Didn’t Know You Needed

Mar 15, 2024 | fatherly.com | Amber Leventry

We’ve all been told that the most important meal of the day is breakfast. But whoever offered this advice should have also provided a fool-proof plan for those of us with kids and the need to be somewhere by a certain time. Sit-down breakfasts aren’t always an option — time doesn’t typically allow for a complicated breakfast and the frantic search for a pair of socks that don’t “feel weird.” Or maybe you have a picky eater and the usual foods dubbed “kid-friendly” just don’t cut it.
My Husband Is A Professional Chef. Here's What We Eat For Breakfast.

Mar 4, 2024 | fatherly.com | Deirdre Kaye

When I first met my partner, who has cooked professionally since he was still in high school, breakfast was a big part of our relationship. We often met up at late-night breakfast spots in our first several months of dating, and then one of us would cook breakfast for the other the next morning. Dating a chef gave me some grandiose ideas about our future. I imagined lazy mornings with impeccable breakfast spreads planned and prepared by him. That's just not our reality, though.
9 Clever TikTok Breakfast Hacks For When Time Is Flying

Mar 4, 2024 | fatherly.com | Jilleen Barrett

We’ve all lived through a stressful morning rush, and it only gets harder once kids arrive. Sometimes they’re just not moving their feet, or they have a meltdown about what outfit they’re going to wear. Maybe your alarm didn’t go off, so you couldn’t wake the kids up on time, and now they are extremely cranky. Whatever the issue is, it’s probably one that’s out of your control. But there’s one thing you can control: breakfast.
How Do I Get Protein Into My Carb-Loving Kid?

Mar 4, 2024 | fatherly.com | Elizabeth Narins

If you’ve birthed a carb monster and can’t quite crack the code on why they won’t just eat the bun *and* burger, you’re not alone. “Kids have an intrinsic motivation to seek certain types of food,” says Taylor Arnold, PhD, RDN, of Growing Intuitive Eaters on Instagram, and YouTube. For my offspring, that means entire meals made up of toast, pasta, or, when I’m out and about and feeling particularly desperate, French fries.
