This week on How You Do Dad, we’re talking about something our dads know absolutely nothing about: C-sections. What actually happens for a C-section mom? And how do you support both mom and child after?
We’re joined by Melissa Campbell, Jane Chuck, and Dr. Alvin as we finally ask all the questions dads are usually too scared (or clueless) to bring up. From plans that go smoothly to moments where nothing goes to plan — it’s an honest, eye-opening chat about what really happens when things take a different route.
Join us as we learn from mistakes and figure out this thing called daddyhood.
