God help you if you have a daughter. Be prepared for the emotional toll you will have and the painful tears you will shed when she is a teenager. She will love her dad and somehow hate you. You will harken back to the days when she was a toddler that worshipped you and beam with nostalgic joy. Being a parent is awesome. I hope you are emotionally strong.

Thats what makes it already challenging. Shes been a daddys girl since day 1. She cries for him at night and not me. Every thing is a fight with me. If I dress her shes running away and kicking me, while she sits there happily when dad does it. Changing diapers is a fight as she flips over on the changing table, kicking at me and screaming. She lays quietly when dad does it. When I get her ready every morning for school every single step is a battle with her as I try to wrangle her. My husband will try to help when he can but most of the time hes in meetings.

The only thing she prefers me for is play time because Im really involved with her and act silly and stuff. My husband doesnt so hes not as fun. So in the evening she only wants to play with me. My husband tries but she gets bored of him and comes back to me. So he gets a bit of a break while I entertain her.
