5.0 out of 5 stars New Dad's to be MUST buy this book!, 26 Jun 1997

By A Customer

This is a must buy for a brand new dad. Of all the books that I have bought on having a new baby, this proved to be the most informative and the book that I return to on a regular basis as a reference. It not only addresses the development of the baby, but the development of the new family. I found that it's insight into the emotional changes that my wife and I were experiencing were remarkably synchopated with our actual experience. I also found it to be very easy to read and follow. I would describe it as an ideal companion book to 'the girlfriends guide to pregnancy', and would recommend both new parents to read both books to get the male and female perspective of the experience. If you have to buy one book as a new daddy, have this be the one. I have just purchased the follow-on book, 'the new father' with the hopes that it equally illuminates the first year of the newborn.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for helping expectant fathers deal with changes., 20 Nov 1998

By A Customer

This book is easy to read, and really helped my husband through my pregnancy. He did not really "get" the typical pregnancy books, but this one really spoke to him. We both reccommend it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Inaccurate and full of misconceptions, 5 Jan 1999

By A Customer

If you read this book, keep in mind that the statements therein are merely the authors' opinions with little or no scientific or factual grounds. Filled with misconceptions and inaccuracies this book will give the father-to-be the perfect excuse to leave the woman in the hands of technology and medical staff while he remains powerless and detached. If you want facts rather than fiction, read any book by Sheila Kitzinger or Dick Grantley-Read's "Childbirth without fear" for example. As a mother-to-be, try giving your partner short sections to read in the factual books addressing issues particularly concerning your situation at the time, if he can't plow through an entire book. Don't fuel his (and your) fears by reading this nonsense.
