Parenting is not easy. Parenting without support is no joke. People think once the baby comes, everything will fall in place. But that is when things get real. From pregnancy to labor to birth to postpartum, new mothers have no break. Her body and mind have gone through awful a lot, and now is the time she needs you the most.

One of the greatest gifts you can ever give to a new mom is to be there for her. If at all possible, take some time off work and be with your baby. Read stories, sing lullabies, and just play around so mom can have some quiet time for herself
#6 Change diapers
Yes! Dads can change diapers, too, and they should. We are in the 21st century, guys. Should we really be asking?
#7 Take care of cooking and cleaning
Believe me when I say nothing makes a new mom happier than healthy food and a cleaner house. Understand that she needs a balanced diet to produce quality milk for the baby and nurture herself as well.
One of the most significant issues for new moms is that either they do not have enough time to cook a meal or gets tired and skip food. This is where you need to step in and make sure she has healthy food.
#8 Go for a walk together
Babies need fresh air and light as much as you both. When the baby comes home, you may not go out as a couple as you always did. But, you can go for a walk with the baby, and they will start to see the world from a different perspective. The brisk walk with the stroller also works as a bit of exercise for both of you.
