Behold, I have become a father!

Now the ultimate test of proof of work is upon me. To be a wonderful father to my little princess!

I hope I have done well so far:

I take care of my girl and my wife every day.

I chose one of the best godfathers in the world: nostr:nprofile1qqsz85wewd25r9h9w93zk7xjewzel50t270zq2vntrpu8r6djql3xlcr6nxny

Congratulations brother! It’s the best.

Hi sven 🤝 nice to meet you

I felt the same emotion 1 year ago. Congratulations and enjoy all the moments that will never come back. Great friend

Band of fathers 💪

Yes 🤟🏴‍☠️😉🤝

Congrats!!🤙🏻

Just think when you as a child felt lost or misunderstood and try to be a good dad in these moments.

That's valuable advice! Sadly I cant zap you

Presence.

Simply be present for them.

Now it won’t seem like much as they aren’t their own human yet,

But as she ages and comes into her own, be intentional to insert yourself into her world.

Start that when she is young and it will be no issue later.

Homeschool. Make that decision early.

Realize you are raising an adult, not a child…meaning, your goal is to help them become the best version of themselves and penultimately whom God wants them to become.

Be present and point them always to God, Christ, and Holy Spirit.

Steward your daughter…

It’s simple yet not always easy.

Congratulations!

Tell them about Jesus 🙏🏾

Glückwünsche. Immer cool bleiben😎

Werd's versuchen 😎

I’ve got my first on the way due in a couple months. Love the inheritance ideas, been staking some sats for her weekly. Congrats and good luck!

Stacking for her monthly as well and set the first amount to 1 million sats!

Congratulations!

reading the comments and good wishes in the comments here just MAKES ME SMILE!

Can't wait to meet the lil munchkin

Congratulations on becoming a father!

Congratulations. I don't know you and I will likely never meet you, but the best advice I can pass along is to try and enjoy every minute.

It is new and exciting now, but in ~5 years it will seem normal and day-to-day. You will spend more time at your job, the birthday parties will come and go and they will begin to frustrate you beyond belief.

But ~10 years after that they are ready to go, to move on to college/career/life and you will realize they are what made your life meaningful that entire time.

It's the journey that's important. Try and enjoy every minute.

Thanks for the advice! I hope it will not go this way.

Congratulations man! Sounds like your daughter is set up for a wonderful life.

Thank you so much Walker!

Breast milk above anything else. A dry, clean bottom, eye to eye contact & hold her as much as she wants & needs. 🤗 and Bitcoin on every birthday!

Congrats 🙌🏻

Welcome to the world Gen ₿

congrats!

purple crying/witching hour is a thing so don't be discouraged when it happens.

breastfeeding is a co-op game in the beginning. help mom get into comfy positions, be on standby with snacks and water. if she's pumping, you are washing all the parts, every time, no questions asked.

that said, fed is best. don't let anyone make you or your wife feel bad about feeding formula.

skin to skin contact with dad. tummy time on Dad's chest is really good. flat, broad, warm and no boobies distractions.

don't be discouraged if you can't settle or soothe as well as mom can. keep at it.

Thank you Karo!

I try to do all the work for her! I do the cleaning, bring her water and food. I cook, change diapers and take care of all the household chores.

And I cuddle with my princess all the time when she is not sleeping or eating.

Wish you all the best.

Thank you! See you at the next meetup! 🧡

Congrats!! I’m joining fatherhood in August, god willing🙏 Any and all advice so far is welcome😅🙌

Congratulations Ethan! This will be epic!

Cheers, Sven!

congratulations good man! Gratuliere !

Thank you kind sir! That's why I will skip the BTC Prague this year, sadly

don’t sweat the small the stuff and give yourself and partner time away (if possible)

parenting is the hardest job ever📠

It takes a village.💜

"parenting is the hardest job ever📠"

I bet it's the most rewarding and fun as well!

The best feeling YES!

Correction: the hardest thing I’ve done. it’s beautiful but with 3 under 10, I’m in the trenches moment 😂

Sei einfach da und höre mehr zu als zu reden! 🩵

Danke, das werde ich versuchen 😊

Interesting concept.

This is a never ending marathon, you recharge with love to keep going!

Toughest thing I've ever done.

But the most rewarding one, by FAR!
