Dad POV: Why does our new baby already seem to favor Mom?

It’s not you; it’s biological! Babies are born with a preference for their mother's scent, voice, and touch. They may also favor their mother if she is the primary caregiver and is more familiar with their needs. However, babies' preferences can change over time, so it is crucial to be patient and to continue spending time with your baby. Strong bonds take time to build.
