In a whirl of scans, doctor’s appointments, back rubs, pregnancy checklists and baby shower gifts, there’s one person who usually gets forgotten. It’s the dad-to-be. 

Pregnancy has the biggest impact on the expecting mama. But pregnancy and childbirth aren’t easy for dads as well. Parenting instinct doesn’t always come for first-time dads as quickly as it does for mums. And just like new mums, new dads can be so stressed out and sleep-deprived. So when thinking of gifts for new parents, send something nice for the dad, too. He could do with a present that makes him feel relaxed—and remembered.

The best gifts for new fathers are often one of two things: something useful that helps ease his transition to parenthood or something that allows him to relax during rare moments of rest. At Dearbump, we’re proud to have curated a Dad Box that includes the best of both.
