Baby stress

Posted on 06/15/201604/19/2025 by Mark
I don’t get stressed out at my jobs or in my personal life, but I have started to experience baby stress.  It is normal, correct?  It will go away soon, correct?  When I come home from work (after 10 hours), it feels like I am being pulled in 10 different directions as there is so much I need to do.  I don’t complain, well maybe a little bit (silently, but somehow Nina can read my lips and mind)!!!  

The first I do is rescue Niko away from Nina and I don’t care if I have to change his diaper or if he is crying in my ears — it is the best feeling in the world and one that I cherish.  I have to give Nina some freedom because she is home all day with Niko (I bet she is full of STRESS!!). 
​

It is hard and extremely demanding work raising a baby.  Everything takes more time and preparation than I think it should.  But, as I mentioned in a previous Daddy Diaries blog, I love being a father and wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Hi, I am Mark. I started writing in 2011 about high school football, daddy blogging since 2015, and reviewing books since 2023. My writing style is unique, my sense of humor is a little crazy, and I’m not embarrassed to share any of it. You can email me at thedadspeaks@icloud.com.
