Insider tips and advice for men on the roller-coaster ride called pregnancy and childbirth--the ideal gift for any expectant Father's Day

James Barron, two-time dad, has written a funny, down-to-earth, and practical book that every man needs when his wife is expecting a baby. He offers suggestions on what to do (and how to act!) from those first moments of anticipation to the main event, including:

  • Helping her deal with her physical and emotional changes

  • Early pregnancy sex (getting used to the new constraints)

  • Keeping up with insurance papers and other forms

  • Dealing with your fears that something will go wrong

  • Middle pregnancy sex (enjoyable surprise!)

  • The top ten things never to say to a pregnant woman

  • Questions you should ask the obstetrician

  • Late pregnancy sex (challenging, but possible)

  • Starting out--the first six weeks of fatherhood

This unique book will bring a smile or two to the men--and to the women who love them--while providing precious assistance to make pregnancy the experience of a lifetime.
