About The Expectant Father: The Ultimate Guide for Dads-to-Be, Fourth Edition
An information-packed, month-to-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 significantly updated and expanded. Incorporating the wisdom of top experts in the field, from obstetricians and birth-class instructors to psychologists and sociologists, the fourth edition of The Expectant Father includes the latest research about assisted reproduction technologies (ART) and many other topics, including how to support and encourage your partner throughout pregnancy, how to juggle work and family roles, and how to become the father you really want to be.
Illustrated throughout with New Yorker cartoons that will make even the most anxious fathers-to-be chuckle, this book reassures, commiserates, informs, and entertains.
