 What Nobody Tells a New Father - The new Dad's Guide to Pregnancy and Parenthood by Alan Hosking

Todays dad is expected to be far more involved in the rearing of his children, but sound, sensible advice to help him feel confident yet comfortable can be hard to find. 

What Nobody Tells a New Father demystifies the world of the pregnancy, birth and early months of his first child, giving him insight into what he will encounter, with practical advice along the way. 

In this revised and updated edition, author and parenting authority, Alan Hosking, distils the wisdom he has gained from 20 years of working closely with children of all ages, from 27 years of parenting, and from 17 years of extensive interaction with new parents. He shares in a light-hearted way, sensible, simple and powerful ways to cope with the transition into parenthood to build a happy and successful family. 

Pregnancy for a woman is an uncomfortable experience, but it is also uncomfortable for a man for a whole lot of different reasons. This book eases the discomfort of pregnancy for a man whose partner is expecting by taking him on a journey that helps him to see things with new eyes and find meaning in the mess. As the book helps a dad-to-be understand the true value of his role, it inspires him to become more supportive of his partner and eagerly embrace this exciting chapter in their lives.

The book marks out the path into parenthood and gives practical tips for building a stable, happy and meaningful relationship with your partner and children. Despite addressing somewhat deep issues, its sometimes tongue-in-cheek style makes it compulsive reading for the most reluctant male reader!
