Laugh your way to fatherhood!
Finally, a guide written especially for unsuspecting males who know little or nothing about parenting but are anxious to give it a try. Downey explodes the myths with a tough, uncompromising, no-holds-barred, no-beg-your-pardons look at fatherhood, from the sperm that started it all to the sleep deprivation you’ll suffer as a result.
‘So You’re Going to Be a Dad’ is a wry and funny book about the trials and joys of parenting. It also provides practical advice about pregnancy, childbirth and baby care, and examines issues of vital importance, including:
- What to say - and what not to say - when you hear the news
- Taking care of moms-to-be
- Why embryos look like the monster in Alien
- Ultrasound, spray cheese and other modern marvels
- Coping with the nesting urge
- Names not to call your baby
- What childbirth feels like
- How many cameras you should take to the birth
- Bonding
- Crying
- Feeding
- Crying
- Diapers
- Crying
- Who was the superior Batman
- Bathing
- Traveling
- Your baby’s development
- Baby-proofing your home
- How much this is all going to cost
- And lots of stuff about sex
But that’s not all! Complete with a glossary full of handy words you’ll need to know and a lot more you won’t, the films to watch and the ones to avoid, and words of wisdom from real, live fathers, ‘So You’re Going to Be a Dad’ is without a doubt one of the greatest parental-education books ever written.
