Dove Men+Care celebrate this powerful time in a dad's life with a new Father's Day-themed ad. 

Titled "First Fatherhood Moments," the video features personal clips from 13 real dads, as they share "their authentic and unfiltered reactions" to this life-changing news.

This reminded me of one of the moments in my life I wish I could have a 'Do Over' with.

I remember the mother of my child told me that she was pregnant. 

Like these Dads to be I was not prepared but unlike them The Mom to be and I were having a massive fight. 

Unbeknownst to me she was secreted away in the bathroom urinating on a home pregnancy test stick. 

When she came out I sensed that she was being reconciliatory but I was having none of it because now I was in full combat mode. 
She eventually gave up on trying to raise thaw white flag and through the 'Positive' stick at me with: "I'm pregnant you a$$hole!'

I jumped up, and cried and hugged her - I can't even remember what the fight was about (probably #PayBackTheMoney) and a few months later we had a baby.
