Dad's First 90 Days

Dad's First 90 Days: A Partner's Survival Guide to the Fourth Trimester

The first three months after a baby arrives are some of the hardest — and most overlooked — for the partner. Most guides talk to the birthing parent. This one talks to you: the dad, the co-parent, the second set of hands who wants to show up but isn't always sure how.

This beautifully designed 13-page guide turns "just be supportive" into something you can actually do and say. It's a calm, practical playbook for the fourth trimester, covering both parents' mental health and the real, ordinary moments where the right words matter most.

Inside you'll find:

• A clear-eyed look at what the fourth trimester does to all three of you — baby, partner, and you
• How to spot the difference between the baby blues and postpartum depression, and exactly how to help
• A full section on your mental health, because paternal postpartum depression is real and often goes unnamed
• Ready-to-use "support scripts" — the exact words for when she's overwhelmed, when you're snapping at each other, when you don't know what to say
• A week-by-week 90-day roadmap so you know what's coming and where to step in
• Practical toolkits, red-flag checklists, and a fill-in resource list for your family

Written to be honest, warm, and judgment-free — no lectures, no guilt, just a steady hand for one of the biggest transitions of your life.

A printable digital guide you can keep on your phone or print at home. Supportive guidance, not medical advice.
