Then when the little one arrives youre expected to immediately bond with them. Sure you may cry and your heart will miss a beat but lots of guys it takes a while to come to terms with what has just happened. In fact some mums are the same.
But… after it seeps into yer brain what it means, however long that takes, it is THE best thing on the planet. Its fundamentally what we were born to do.
