Six months ago, on the 20th March 2017 Leo was born at St. Joseph Krankenhaus, Berlin. Today paternity leave properly starts for me. I've been off work for the last four weeks but I've seldom been alone with Leo. When I have, it's just been for a few hours here and there. This morning Leo’s mother left for work at 8am and most likely won't return till 8pm. The 'hand over' period is over, I'm the main caregiver for the next 5 months. 

This is a blog about my experiences as a full time Dad in Germany.
