23 July 2009 Today is my son’s birthday so it’s a great day for me to talk about who we are as children. Because I’ve traveled extensively and lived in quite a number of other cultures I’ve been able to observe some things I might not have noticed otherwise. Often I don’t speak the language [...]

22 July 2009 The last entry was a bit confusing so I’m going to explain again … hopefully better. Most often we do not see ourselves as the baby we once were. Somehow ‘baby’ is a separate species that somehow transforms into ‘child’ which we seem to identify with. We can see ourselves as the [...]

21 July 2009 One thing you need to understand is that learning how-to be a father is sort of different for men than for women.

20 July 2009 There is just so much to say that you’ll have to forgive me if I wander around and meander through issues. We have to go back a wee bit to what we learned in the earlier blogs. We are all one humanity and you could have impregnated any woman in the world [...]

17 July 2009 As an expectant father you might be 1 day away from being a father but I have to start earlier … so sorry. For this blog to make sense and to help the millions of men who are now pregnant I have to put some order to things so starting at the [...]

What else does The Dog Whisperer teach? There can be more than one human ‘pack leader’ (In pregnancy/childbirth this means you both are equally important) Human ‘pack leaders’ take care of the dog they are interacting with (in childbirth this means you each have a role and each of you must use your skills) Human [...]

15 July 2009 So we’ve figured out that however you became pregnant, you are now. You could have planned it or not. You could have a great relationship with your wife/partner or not. You could be a gay couple with a surrogate mother. You could have wanted this baby or not. You could have just [...]

14 July 2009 Through Time humans have given birth to the next generation. What a stupid comment but we need to bring into our awareness what we’re really working with when we talk about pregnancy and childbirth. Because we share one human body (with small differences) why do we see each other as so different? [...]
