First Time Dad

@secretdad12122

I just found out my wife is pregnant with our first baby. Not really sure what lies ahead so I thought I’d write about it. Enjoy!

So…it turns out I’ve not posted anything since September. 😬 I guess life got more intense! But this made me happy before I went back to work, so my New Year’s resolution is to continue to post about my daughter’s antics. She’s a very different person now she’s one!


My Valentine’s date threw mushroom, avocado, egg and bread all over the restaurant floor. She devoured her hash brown, then drank far too much apple juice. Now she’s pulled her socks off and is using them as a pillow while she naps. Love her ❤️ #ValentinesDay #daughter


For all the toil, parenting a small child definitely has its perks. Eating dinosaur cereal is right up there!


I now get greeted at the childminder’s when I collect her by what sounds like a very bad impersonation of a Spanish person saying ‘ello’ on the phone. She also brought me 2 rubber ducks. She’s too funny.


This would be hilarious

Babys first vocals to music



When your toddler comes home from the childminder with her first ever black eye… And you hear about how she sneezed so hard she knocked herself off her feet and banged her head on the table 🤣


It might be an actual year since this baby slept all the way through the night. Just imagine how many minutes I’ve racked up looking on disappointedly at the monitor. If it keeps happening I might start looking for the receipt.


Hearing your daughter has 💩 so hard at the childminder’s that her husband nearly threw up should be mortifying… Yet my initial reaction was a combination of proud and just glad she did it there and not in my house 🤣


Genuinely a bit emotional at hearing my daughter say ‘bye’ for the first time to me over the phone while I was 200 miles away. She’s a smart baby.


I’ve learnt that being a dad means I have to be prepared for the weekend breakfast I’ve looked forward to all week to be leftover lukewarm ready brek with pears and prune purée. 👍


So my daughter’s obsessed with the moon now. As cute as this is, the times when it’s not visible she doesn’t understand and gets mad. We’ve now decided to give her a moon nightlight which hopefully fills the void!


She no longer gets carried to the door by the childminder 🥺 she walks all by herself. End of an era! She’s a big girl now! Every single time without fail she’ll point to her lunch bag behind the door now too 🤣 and she even carried that herself today too!


She’s gone from learning to walk 3 weeks ago to being able to walk around with a football and even do the world’s tiniest kicks. Athlete.


Seeing my daughter get measured for and try on her first pair of shoes. 🥹


First yoga session with my daughter in the room since she learned to walk and it was hilarious. She spent more time playing with my belly button and climbing on me than anything else. Also, she’s obsessed with @yogawithadriene’s dog Benjy. Can’t wait for the next one!


My daughter’s classy. If she’s got a book in her hand, she always brings it over to do some reading while she has her stinking, rotten nappy changed.


Never thought I’d google ‘are baby farts affected by mother’s diet when breastfeeding’. She had kebab.


Literally only just finished tonight’s Traitors thanks to my daughter kicking off constantly and both of us taking turns to be nap trapped. She owes us! #Traitors


The post-viral rash is absolutely wild. My baby looks like a second-hand dartboard but this is apparently a sign that the virus is leaving the body. All good then, even if she looks like crap 👍
