What are some ways that fathers can actively participate in monitoring and promoting the health and development of a newborn baby?

Dear user, thank you for your question. Fathers can definitely contribute to the health and development of the newborn baby in many ways, not limited to: 1) assisting with doctor appointments such as vaccinations and follow ups; 2) observe baby's developmental milestones by ticking off the list in the baby's health booklet; 3) Ensure safety features in newborns are in place, including avoiding objects which may suffocate baby, preventing water scalds during bath time, infant car seat installation, avoiding sarong cradle and ensure baby is never left alone at all times. More information can be found in websites from established government agencies or internationally recognised organisations, including HealthHub (HPB), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) websites. Hope they are helpful!
