Review “You may feel like the birth process is mostly out of your hands as a father, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. This book is the perfect way to prepare and educate yourself before baby arrives to become the advocate your partner needs and deserves. A must-read for all new dads-to-be!” Allison Jandu, Owner and Founder of Potty Training Consultant, Author of Potty Training for Busy Parents, mom of two “This short, sweet, and funny guide to the birthing journey is THE gift for soon-to-be fathers.” Clint Edwards, author of I’m Sorry... Love, Your Husband “Finally, a guide for dads that provides valuable information about what to expect through pregnancy and birth while also covering how to support and understand their partners needs during this time. While its sprinkled with the humor that I love about Andy Shaws work, it doesnt talk down to dads and makes light of the preparation needed on the journey to becoming a new parent. Definitely a book that should be found on all expecting fathers nightstands.” Holly Keich, Owner, Om Baby Pregnancy & Parenting Center About the Author ANDREW SHAW is an award-winning parenting columnist, former journalist, author of The New Mom’s Guide to New Dads, and creator of the Instafather blog.
