Summary

The Expectant Father is the best-selling pregnancy guide for men, trusted by millions of dads-to-be and their partners.

This reassuring month-by-month overview gives you the facts and advice you need to understand your baby’s development, support your partner, and prepare for the joys and challenges of fatherhood. It concludes with two special sections: one on labor and delivery, and the other covering the first few months after your baby’s arrival.

The fifth edition of this New York Times best seller is updated with the latest information about fertility, prenatal care, and delivery; work-life balance (including the lessons learned from COVID-19); financial planning; and much more. It incorporates the expertise of leading OB-GYNs and researchers and the real-life experiences of hundreds of dads and moms.

The Expectant Father is a friendly, listenable, and inclusive companion for all dads-to-be. (Moms will love it, too!)

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Very detailed, informative and clear, but heavily tailored to US listener

Clear and easy narration, loads of info, but at times the balanced nature, and the level of detail provided can contradict other sections and cause some confusion. A lot of advice is tailored towards a Us listener, especially when it comes to the norms of provate heathcare in the US, this was pointless for myself as a Uk listener, but it wasn’t clear upon purchase

Amount of knowledge

I liked the sense of humour, it really helps to learn. Very good book for a father to be - especially when you read it before even starting to try for a baby
