Daddies can bond with babies by helping out whenever he can. He can hang out with baby after work, giving mommy some time to catch her breath and relax. While mommy is breastfeeding, dad can stick around and talk to baby, after which he can assist in burping. My dad worked alot when I was a baby and was barely home but according to my mom, he never missed the chance to kiss me goodnight no matter how late it was, which my mom believes is the reason why I've always been daddy's girl despite not seeing my dad often growing up.

As newborn still sleep a lot and less alert, daddy can help in routine task e.g. changing diaper, baby massage, singing rhymes, bath baby, feeding baby, applying cream and etc. Once baby turns 4 to 6 months, there are more activities can be do together e.g. reading, playing, tummy time and etc.

Be more hands on. Pretend that you are a girl playing with dolls; bath the baby, change its diaper, clean it, talk to it. You have no idea how much nonsense I’ve spoken to my child when he was a baby. Doesn’t matter if he understand, just pretend he is. You will enjoy it as well.

Not just for mom, dad also need skin to skin contact with baby. It makes them bond and feel connected to each other. If daddy have those same bonding as mom does, it is not hard for him to voluntarily do baby thing like changing diapers, naping, etc

Dads can bond by helping mums whenever they can. For e.g. in changing diapers, making the baby sleep, etc. Parents can also take care of the baby turn by turn, that way the baby will bond with both of them and both will get some relaxing time.

1. Place baby onto your chest/ belly. That warmth is sure to make babies feel confortable and safe. 2. This is another kind of 'bonding' but don't be afraid to side with your wife's decision when there are too many opinions.

Since the wife still needs a lot of rest after giving birth, taking care of the baby's needs can be a good bonding for the dad and the baby. He can change diapers, putting the baby to sleep (sing a song), changing of clothes, etc.
