Product Description |
|
Since it was first published several years ago, The Expectant Father has become the indisputable leader in its field. It is an information-packed, month-by-month guide to all the emotional, financial, and yes, even physical changes the father-to-be may experience during the course of his partner's pregnancy. Incorporating the wisdom of top experts in the field, from obstetricians and birth-class instructors to psychologists and sociologists, The Expectant Father is filled with sound advice and practical tips for men, including how to afford a pregnancy; how to juggle work and family roles; how to make sense of your conflicting emotions; what childbirth classes don't teach you; ways to support and encourage your partner throughout the pregnancy; how to start a college fund; how pregnancy affects your sex life; how to deal with the obstacles society places in the way of involved fathers. In the revised and expanded second edition, authors Armin Brott and Jennifer Ash incorporate the latest statistics; update the Resources section to include the many relevant websites that have appeared since the first edition was published; introduce information for adoptive fathers-to-be; address the special concerns of fathers who are expecting twins, triplets, or more babies; and much more. The new edition, like the first, is illustrated with delightful cartoons that will keep even the most anxious fathers-to-be chuckling. |

Written for the Homer simpsons of the world |
|
Not a bad book, but seems clearly taylored towards the Homer Simpson type of father out there, some advice is good, while the rest of it is almost insulting to one's intelligence, or are there really that many fathers out there that have no clue? If you have a general idea of how to be a good husband or father, dont get this book. |

Unclear Advice, Not Holistically Minded |
If you like the book, "What To Expect When You Are Expecting," then you'll probably like this book. Clearly this was meant to be a male version of "what to expect when you are expecting." It's very conventionally oriented, with the author appealing to mainstream thinking, which involves a medically oriented birth, and poor nutritional guidelines. The book is very structured, and there is allot of stuff in their about money. It's funny that I have yet to see a woman's pregnancy book that discusses finances. So it's good that this book does. Most of the advice is towards the center/conservative approach to child raising and is wishy washy as it is meant to appeal to many types of readers.
Review is by Ramiel Nagel author of Healing Our Children: Because Your New Baby Matters! Sacred Wisdom for Preconception, Pregnancy, Birth and Parenting (ages 0-6) & Cure Tooth Decay: Heal and Prevent Cavities with Nutrition (First Edition). |

Excellent stuff |
|
This is a good resource for the guys. Not so technical like the Mayo or What to expect....., but it takes you through some of the fun aspects of pregnancy. Also talks about how you can do things (birth, baby furniture/clothes purchase, cord blood banking, etc etc) differently. I would say that this book contributed a bit to the confidence I had in handling things during my wife's pregnancy. |
