It’s a tale as old as time and a sure shot Hallmark classic once the rom com novel is written. Canuck girl sweeps Long Island boy off his feet. NY boy ventures to the wilderness to capture girls heart with a ring. Real life settles in as the movie credits begin. “Canadian Dad” is part of our Covid Series. JP and his wife have welcomed their first child, Oliver into the world 7 weeks ago. Social distancing leaves the new family with limited options for help. JP’s US support system is not an option as travel is suspended between countries. JP was lucky as it is to get into the country before lockdowns on the Canadian side. Nevertheless, life goes on. We discuss some differences between the two health systems, birthing plans, baby scalp massages (yes please), hospital stays during a pandemic, and circumcision. I was planning a complete episode dedicated to circumcision after having my first boy. A lot of information I did not know. Thankfully we had a wonderful doctor to walk us through our decision. JP was pretty firm in his POV until game day arrived. Welcome to Season 2.
