Is there anything more touching than seeing a dad hold his baby for the first time? I remember when my son was born, we couldn’t hold him for two days. He was an itty bitty preemie! Since we had to wait so long, I of course got to hold him first. My husband had to stand by patiently awaiting his turn. In honor of Father’s Day, we asked readers to share their favorite “daddy & baby” bonding pictures! Check out five touching moments caught on film.
6 Touching Photos of Dads with Babies
1- That is a look of pure love!

2- I am laughing at the mirror image facial expressions here! Someone definitely takes after daddy!

3- I think she loves her daddy just as much as her planta!

4- I love pics of dads gazing down into that sweet newborn face!

5- Here’s to hoping baby has the same great taste in music as dad!

6- Pure Love!

So cute. Photos of my hubby with our littles when they were babies will always remain favourites of mine. So sweet.
This is a super-cute post! I love your pictures of the various daddy’s found in it.
This made me tear up. Maybe because I am a new mom and it is my husband’s first Father’s Day this weekend.
These are all so adorable! Dad’s love is really like no other!
Is there anything sweeter than a doting dad? These photos melt my heart! ♥
It’s great to see when a man sincerely cares for his baby and it shows in a photo. I don’t have any photos of hubby holding either of our sons that stand out more than the others.
