E225. FAQs Every New & Expectant Dad Has (But Rarely Asks)

FAQs Every New & Expectant Dad Has (But Rarely Asks) - with Midwife Pip Becoming a dad can feel exciting, surreal, and quietly overwhelming - often all at once. In this episode, Midwife Pip answers the questions many new and expectant dads think but rarely say out loud. From why pregnancy can feel abstract, to what your role really is in labour, to bonding with your baby and navigating postnatal mental health, this is an honest, judgment-free guide to fatherhood. We talk about emotional disconnect, relationship changes, postpartum mental health in dads, and the myths that put unnecessary pressure on new families, without macho nonsense or pretending it’s all sunshine. If you’re about to become a dad, are already in the thick of it, or want to support your partner better, this episode will help you feel more prepared, more grounded, and far less alone.
