Great read for new fathers ....expect everything from you new born the author talks about....Its a must read ...I plan listening too the audio book again

Great book

I liked the way the facts were presented, as well as the voice of the author.

Great book to guide fathers through the first year

Great book recommended it for all fathers. Good insights into how to handle the first year.

Great New Father Instructions Manual

A baby does not come with an instruction manual but this is the closest thing to one. Each chapter was another month. I would listen to each chapter around the time my son would reach that age/month. I was amazed how many times the chapters were spot on. What the baby is going through, what the mother is going through and what you are going through. First time fathers, this book is a must.

Well Organized and Extremely Well Done!

This and all of the books in the series have helped me be a great dad and husband. I was prepared for most things before the baby, and definitely had confidence after the baby arrived because I had proper expectations set thanks to this book. Highly recommend, can’t say enough. Download it.
