Just a laugh: Dad shares hilarious anecdotes about his first 160 days as a parent

As the brand new father of a daughter, Bonisile has listed several discoveries and tips. We picked the best for you:

Shit before, shit after

‘When you have a baby, you are concerned with nothing but poo. ‘What color is it? How often does he go? Was it easy? Do we still have enough wipes? Let me take a picture of the poo for the doctor. ‘ Before you know it, your phone will be full of poo photos. ‘

Be prepared with clothes

‘There are garments that they actually wear once. Once. That hurts, so do not buy too expensive. Oh, and another tip: bringing an extra set of clothes for your baby is not a superfluous luxury, but don’t forget yourself. Because that little one is sure to poop or spit on you. ‘

read a book

About parenting. Honestly, I speak from experience when I say it helps you those early months. It ensures that you continue to see it all clearly for a little while longer. ‘

Create a playlist

Select music that calms your baby when he’s crying or angry non-stop. It works, I even tested it on friends ‘babies.’

Have eyes in ten places

‘Babies do everything they can to endanger their lives. They put the coin that just fell out of your pocket in their mouth, or suck on the plug of your laptop. Or they almost get out of bed, which their necks don’t like. Your job: prevent your baby from taking his own life without realizing it. ‘

Accept that everything changes

‘Your routine becomes completely different with a baby. It’s non-stop – it’s not a bra to take off at the end of the day. So: can you afford a babysitter? Take that one. If parents or others want to help in any way, accept the offer with both hands. And do you have deadlines for your work? Feel free to add two days to it. ‘
