The Expectant Father: Facts, Tips and Advice for Dads-To-Be

Easy to read, entertaining, informative (Austin, TX USA) March 24, 2003 - 5.0/5 stars
My husband and I have a pile of books on pregnancy. Most of the books
written for women dwell on the many problems that can arise (both serious
and mundane) during pregnancy.
Dreary. Not a single one of the others
contains word one about planning for college or any financial issue. In
fact, one of my books advises me not to worry about finances because
"that's the father's department." Pretty ridiculous since he
will be staying at home and I (the mother) will be working full time.This book, unlike those, does address this issue very competently. It
is, I think, one of the best pregnancy books we have (i.e.
I can't stand
the supremely pedantic "What to Expect When You're Expecting"
and think "Your Pregnancy Week by Week," while not pedantic, has
no information the other does not.) This book contains many useful
facts for the father to be and is written in such a way as to be helpful
to mother and father.
My husband has absorbed more dos and don't during
pregnancy from this one book than I have in reading 5 other books.
It
contains an excellent list of questions to ask your obstetrician. Things
everyone needs to know but may never think to ask. Bottom line - we love
this book and would recommend it to anyone expecting a baby.
It is easy
reading while being informative and doesn't overdo the medical lingo (or
the whole medical issue).
