Unleashing Fatherhood Potential: Dr Kaleb Valdez on Supporting Birth and Early Parenting

Let's challenge the taboo and be informed, respectful and present; advocating for the birth team and supporting a connected experience for dads, moms and babies.

"Be an active participant in this thing. Don't let anybody tell you you can't have an opinion about this. You don't have a role in this because what you've described is a wish. Be educated, go to the Lamas classes, go to these OB visits, have the awkward conversations, and you're going to expose some ignorance that you had. We don't know everything as much as we think we know our wives. There's more to learn, there's more to understand

Dr. Kaleb Valdez is a chiropractic physician, bestselling author, and passionate advocate for male involvement in birth and breastfeeding. He specializes in pediatric chiropractic and works with often premature births and stressed pregnancies.

A passionate Dr Kaleb Valdez used his experience working with thousands of patients and babies to advocate for the role of men in childbirth and early parenting. He encouraged men to be educated and present in the process, and to be allies and advocates for the mother. He challenged the narrative that men should be frazzled and disconnected during pregnancy and childbirth, and instead encouraged them to have the tough
conversations and make sacrifices with the mother to make sure they are equally yoked. He encouraged men to be willing to kick out any member of the birth team that was not respecting the wishes of the mother and baby, as an advocate for the birth team. Dr Kaleb Valdez strives to help fathers become present, informed, and committed to being an ally during this life-changing experience for the mother and baby

1. How can men become more involved in the birth and breastfeeding process?
