The First Time Dad’s Guide to Pregnancy

A Week-by-Week Strategy Guide for the Next 9 Months, Including Checklists, Tips, and Pregnancy Hacks for First Time Dads

By: Lee Holiday

Being a father is a lot like being a superhero--it can be a whole heap of fun, but the territory also comes with a fair amount of responsibility. As fathers we are expected to display a number of superhuman abilities; however, being perfect isn’t one of them.

That’s right! Perfection isn’t important! But what is during these early stages of parenthood is that you whole-heartedly participate alongside mum whilst providing her a steady compassion and support. She’s going through a lot, you know.

There’s going to be a lot to take in over the next nine+ months, and this book intends to make things a little more manageable.

The First Time Dad’s Guide to Pregnancy will help you:

• Break down the pregnancy into manageable weekly/monthly/trimester segments.
• Be confident knowledge about your child’s development by providing week-by-week need-to-know info as well as dedicating an entire chapter to Dad Questions.
• Better preempt and support mum’s needs.
• Take better care of your own well-being and mental health.

Dads and their feelings are oftentimes overlooked during pregnancy, but this doesn’t mean that they are any less important, and for that reason time has been dedicated throughout the book to the feelings of the expectant father. Some of us are taking our first steps into fatherhood without the luxury of a father figure of our own to draw from. This and many more variable factors mean that during this life-changing period we as men also go through a lot. We face outward adversity and inner turmoil alike and regularly take such stress solely upon ourselves, resulting in restless nights and unnecessary burden.

It is for these reasons that The First Time Dad’s Guide to Pregnancy will, from time to time, shift meaningfully towards fatherly advice and a Dad-to-be's well-being.
