Dude, You're Gonna Be a Dad!: How to Get (Both of You) Through the Next 9 Months

Description
There are approximately 3,712 ways for a guy to look stupid during pregnancy-this book's here to help you avoid all (most) of them. And here's your first hint: Focus on what you can be doing for her rather than what's happening to her.She's pregnant. She knows that. You know that. And her one hundred and fifty-two baby books tell her exactly what she can expect. Your job is to learn what you can do between the stick turning blue and the drive to the delivery room to make the next nine months show more go as smoothly as possible. That's where John Pfeiffer steps in.Like any good coach, he's been through it. He's dealt with the morning sickness and doctor visits, painting the baby's nursery and packing the overnight bag, choosing a name, hospital, and the color of the car-seat cover. All the while he remained positive and responsive-there with a "You're beautiful" when necessary-but assertive during the decision-making process. (He didn't want to wind up with a kid named Percy.) And now it's your turn.She might be having the baby, but you have plenty of responsibilities. show lessTags

Better than some dad books, and nice concise information, but the writing style is super chummy and try hard, which… hard to avoid in this segment, unfortunately.
