This is an Outstanding Overview
The book covers all subjects that may be left unsaid or overlooked in the pregnancy, birth, and baby caring process. There is some lover relationship advice that may not be relevant depending on how your relationship is with your partner, however the rest is pretty good. Certain ideas such as speaking up during the birth process, how to play with a baby, and the monthly checkpoints to look out for throughout pregnancy is spot on.

Great even if its not your first time
I got this for my husband even though its not our first. We have three kids, but it's been a few years since our last one. Even though we've done this before, its can still be a little scary. This book helped him know what to expect and definitely helped our overall pregnancy and childbirth experience.
