This is quite a comprehensive list of things for new fathers to expect when it comes to parenthood, mostly practical too:
"PJ's are a waste of time.
Infants are surprisingly portable. Don't be afraid to travel.
Try to enjoy each age of your child's life.
Learn good lifting technique. Your back is the first thing that will go. A squirming 10 pound baby is harder on your back than a 25 pound toddler who knows how to keep its balance.
If this is your first child, there is no way you can fully prepare yourself for what is about to happen. Try to relax, get some rest and don't panic."

Sombrero Fallout 904c2f2f-4e79-40b4-8830-16b4909b1948 The wearer of this fallout will receive many funny looks, but there can be no doubt that this is truly a king Sombrero in a world reduced to poor imitations.
I find that fathers have a harder time adjusting to things like dirty diapers compared to the mother!
Wow, all this diaper washing is complicated!
I think I would prefer disposables..

Honestly, it's not complicated, *once* it becomes part of your routine. It can be unpleasant but if you're going to have kids you've got to expect the unpleasant :)
