Hello,
I would say be loving and attentive to Mommy and baby. That precious little baby needs Daddy to hold, feed and change diapers as well. I have never been too keen on Daddy's to just plant their seed and do not get a hands on experience. It takes two to make a baby. Well, the old fashioned way it does.
Daddy's need to love and primp over their wives and show lots or affection to their newborn. Sure, men are not really fans of babies per se, but when the baby is your own, men usually will melt.
Let's see, Mommies and Daddies are both learning to parent so they both need each other for support now and forever.
I think this is why God created a Man and Woman to pro create and raise a family together. What the Daddy lacks, the Mommy picks up and visa versa.
Hope this helps you............... :-)

Your main role is to bond with your baby. You will be stunned about how emotional you will feel when you see your child for the first time. This is your flesh. Your blood. Your future. And, if you allow yourself to feel this . . the child will be forever in your heart . . loved unconditionally. Plus, once you bond it will help you through all the messy things that come with having a baby . . like changing diapers, spit up, and crying. But none of that will bother you as you focus only on that little child . . your child and your partners child. A child you will share for a lifetime. Enjoy, my friend. Enjoy. You are in for the ride of a lifetime that will bring you great pain and great joy. Enjoy this time, Dad, for it is precious beyond your wildest dreams.

Be supportive. Take a genuine interest in the baby and all of the preparations. Be sensitive and tolerant of any hormone mood swings (she can't help it). Try to do things to make the mother have less of a burden.
Some so to be fathers feel like they don't have as much of a connection to the baby because they aren't carrying it, but you can make you own connection by reading, talking to the baby. Babies can hear inside the womb.

To be patient, to know that at some point, his partner is going to need some time to herself, so he will have to look after baby for a while, erm, to do shopping and cooking, and generally be there for the new mom. He has to realise he isn't her number one priority- the baby is, and so shouldn't put any pressure on new mom to be intimate with him.
Basically, if he sees something that needs doing, he should do it, with out being asked.
Have him do some research on what having a baby is like, and be prepared to be yelled at from time to time, especially after sleepness nights.
Wow, I could go on all night, but I won't.
Just be there, be supportive, be patient, and have a box of tissues ready for if the baby blues takes hold.
Don't worry though, it isn't all bad. There are many newborn cuddles that you get to have...they make up for everything else.

HELP!!! That is all we want! Help with the housework, help with the late night feedings, help with everything. as long as there is constant support by our husbands we are happy. It is very hard work taking care of a new baby those first few months and mommy can use all the help she can get. It doesn't always have to be from the daddy either. A sister, friend, grandmother. Anyone who can lend some help with meals and housework.

To help your wife in any way possible, and take pride in changing the babies diaper, and the feeding of your child, get up at night when it cries, and pamper your wife with massages. Afterall, she deserves it.

to comfort the mother, help get baby stuff ready for when the baby comes, basically be supportive of the mother through all of her physical and emotional ups and downs.
