If you can try to schedule the Dr. visits at a time when the daddy can be there too. He will get to share the special moments, listening to the heart beat, and seeing his unborn child move around in the ultra sound.
As strange as this may sound, talk to your baby. He/she will recognize your voices. Something else you could do together is go to a child birth class. That is just another way to keep daddy involved.
*A note to daddy*
Reassure mommy, tell her how beautiful she is, and what great parents you will both be! Also help around the house. Take some of the stress out of her life because when mommy is stressed so is baby!
