Scared partner?Created By mamfajane on 28 August 2008

Just wondered if anyone else has a husband or partner who is scared stiff of becoming a dad?

I was more than a little apprehensive during my wife's pregnancy and I felt the pressure of not knowing what I would do whe junior arrived was pretty scary, after all the feeling is that most women seem to take to it naturally and what if I didn't? Samuel is now 2 weeks old and you tell our husband/ partner that as soon as you look into their eyes all of that anxiety falls away and it feels like the most natural thing in the whole world.
Good luck!

Just wanted to say that my partner was terrified of the idea. After Milly was born he was a bit wobbly, but now absoloutely loves being a dad. I think often the idea scares them more than the reality, plus once you have a baby you're too busy to think about it, everything just happens. Good luck, I'm sure he'll be fine... Anja
Thank you that's kind of you. Yes I'm hoping you're right but seen as everybody i know who has children say the same thing I'm sure it'll be o.k.
