As father’s day approaches, it is interesting to see what the scientific evidence is telling us about fathers and babies, and fathers raising children.
The rapid hormonal changes after a baby is born, and the ticking of a ‘biological clock’ are things that have been traditionally associated with women.
However, science is showing that men also undergo huge hormonal changes after a child is born, to make them more suited to nurturing; are more prone to depression after a baby is born; and have far greater difficulty making babies as they age.
This was the topic up for discussion on The Morning Show with Declan Meehan.
