Lessons Learned After Being A Dad For 2 Weeks

26 February, 2005 (12:02) | Family | By: Alexander Raiano III

I know that I’ve been a Dad for less then 2 weeks however; I’ve already learned a bunch of different things such as:

  • Don’t wake a sleeping baby: Alex is sleeping through the night now however; the first night that he did Shell and I woke him up because we were nervous.
  • If you have a good baby they will cry for 2 main reasons: 1) Their diaper is dirty 2) They are hungry
  • Every new Dad needs a TiVo: There’s nothing better then being able to pause a SU game while the baby needs to have his diaper changed.
  • Get a digital camera: I’ve taken about 300 pictures already. Imagine if I didn’t have a digital camera :).
  • Sleep when you can sleep: If you get a chance to take a nap take it. Especially when the baby isn’t sleeping through the night. Luckily for Shell and I, Alex only had 3 nights where he was up a lot.

    • That’s it for now. I’m sure I’ll have more advice soon :).
