Can't believe a whole month has gone by. He's started to smile a little and his eyes track me when I move around. Still exhausted as hell but these small moments are making it worth it. My wife is recovering well and I'm actually starting to feel less terrified about handling him. Cheers to all you new dads out there grinding it out.
Dude, enjoy this phase. My daughter is 1 month old too and time is flying. These smiles are everything.
One month already! The eye tracking is wild right. My son started doing that around the same time and it's like oh wow this little dude actually knows who I am now.
Congrats! That moment when they start tracking you with their eyes is wild. One month in and they're already little people.
That first month goes by in a blur doesn't it. Enjoy those smiles, they get bigger and more frequent. Pretty soon you'll have a full laugh and it changes everything.
One month down! The smiles get even better. Before you know it he'll be laughing and you'll be officially toast.

Congrats on making it through the first month! Those little smiles are everything. Wait until he can track you across the whole room, changes how you feel about parenting real quick.
