like daddit for the fediverse but we all eat pizza with ranch and say "ope" a lot. all dads and non-dads are welcome. ranch on pizza is recommended but not required. ope is mandatory.

Congrats. Got our 1 month old sleeping in my arms as I type. The first few weeks are a blur but damn I wouldn't trade them for anything so far.

That is good to hear. Night 1 at home has been trying. Mostly, the dog just makes it harder.

Feel free to DM anytime to commiserate 😀 I will say one thing that I learned early on is its ok to put the baby down and let it cry for a few minutes if you need a break. They'll be pissed, but perfectly fine (assuming normal safety precautions). Also, if you have friends/parents/siblings/inlaws/whoever that can help take the baby off your hands for even an hour, it can make all the difference

Thanks for the offer. We do have a good amount of support. It's more-so about utilizing them in a way that doesn't drive us nuts lol
