I have great sympathy for that wally's DP! What kind of a parent is terrified of nappies? Has he no concept of how incredibly fortunate he is to have had a healthy baby?

"Though I never felt any resentment towards my daughter ? if anyone was the innocent party here, it was her ? I felt little in the way of parental love. But how could I? She was a stranger to me, and a fairly rude one at that. She disrupted my sleep, she cried when I tried to hold her. Her nappies terrified me, and she'd killed my sex and social life stone dead. I was going to have to get to know her first, and this would take some considerable time. "

Actually I should read it. It shows that if 'reluctant' men were left to look after the baby, the species would be extinct.
