This study is an attempt to understand the impact of the first newborn upon the father. In clinical interviews, specific aspects of the father's developing bond to his newborn were noted, and the development of this bond was observed to have a discernible influence upon the father. Further, the normal reflex activity and behavior of the newborn was observed to enhance this bond.
