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—now fully updated and expanded.

Incorporating the wisdom of top experts in the field, from obstetricians and birth-class instructors to psychologists and sociologists, the Second Edition of The Expectant Father includes the latest research and is filled with sound advice and practical tips for men, such as:
  • How to afford a pregnancy
  • Special ways to prepare if you’re adopting a baby
  • How to juggle your work and family values
  • How to make sense of your conflicting emotions
  • What childbirth classes don’t teach you
  • How to manage if you are expecting twins—or more
  • Ways to support and encourage your partner throughout the pregnancy
  • How to deal with the obstacles society places in the way of involved fathers
Complete with New Yorker-style cartoons that will keep even the most anxious fathers-to-be chuckling, The Expectant Father is, in the words of Full-Time Dads, “the What to Expect When You’re Expecting for men.” [ Read full book description... ]
