Top tips for dad to get through the third trimester:

Waters Breaking – your partner’s waters will break either naturally or with assistance from the midwife. This also means that you are really close and baby won’t be long.

Birth – Try to enjoy this moment when your baby enters the world. This is where it all begins…

Placenta – after the baby is born your partner needs to deliver the placenta. Be supportive for your partner as it is nearly over for her now.

Holding the baby – don’t be scared and take your time. Take a seat and get comfortable and you will think you have been doing it for years.

Take a picture – you will have lots of pictures of mum and baby but make sure you get a photo of all of you together for the first time.
