Friday blog hop - Dad : a haven!



I saw this cartoon today on Pinterest and it made me think of the whole MummyMilk (very much one and the same thing for a baby!)/Baby/Daddy triangle. It's true that, as the cartoon suggests, a baby might not always be happy to see Daddy when he wakes up in the night and expects warm milky cuddles!
On the other hand a baby who tends to be unsettled and always want to feed when he is with Mummy might find some peace and rest in Daddy's arms. Parents will know the drill : he's been fed, his nappy is clean, what does he need? Sometimes the answer is just Daddy's arms, where your baby can forget that not far away there is milk 'on tap'. Babies are not very different from us in that way ; to go to sleep we need to wind down and switch off but try going to sleep with a hot plate of Sunday roast or steaming sticky toffee pudding in front of your nose!
