From the moments of sheer melt-your-heart ecstasy to those mornings where you want to drag your sleep-deprived body out of the front door and curl up underneath the nearest tree, being a dad is like nothing you’ve ever experienced before.

But what – apart from the obvious – do you need to do to get there? What happens along the way? And what the hell do you do with the little blob once it arrives?

Fear not. We’ve got your back, by providing real-life experiences from real-life people. Not text book theory, not predictable stuff you can find anywhere, but reality – funny, heartbreaking and practical reality.
