I got this book for my husband and also my best friends husband.. I wanted to read it first and HOLY COW this book was awesome! I loved the way how blunt and straight to the point in man terms this book was written.. HIGHLY recommend!!!!

Firstly, ignore the TWO, yes TWO, negative reviews... There is always the couple of folks who "just don't get it." I picked this up a Baby's r US and thumbed through it while waiting to go on the "baby shower registration" escapade... I enjoyed the book so much, I bought it from Amazon.com. (only one copy at the store and it was beat up.)
The author talks writes in lingo that is not meant for the "wimpy" guy or the guy is so full of himself that he honestly believes that his stuff don't stink. This is written for the Football/Hockey watchin', beer drinkin', pool playin', laugh out loud kind of guy. The survival tips listed, both before and after the birth, were actually covered in our hospital's childbirth class... Reinforced actually, as I had already read them all here... This isn't an owners manual for your NFU (new family unit), but will show you some great (and some not so) things about to come your way.

The guy is not a doctor!

My daughter is due in February and I got this as an early Christmas gift. I read some of those other reviews and laughed at the complaints that it's not a detailed book. The author states in advance that he's not a doctor and the book is meant to be a relief from all of those huge unreadable medical books. The critical survival tips are great and the glossary is very funny. It's a humor book for GUYS, not the Girlfriend's Guide. Buy it for what it is, not what you want it to be. - Liam, USMC

Entertaining and informative

It held my husband's attention and he actually took the advice seriously because it was obviously written by a "manly man" as opposed to some of the other books that I had him read. It was very humorous and offered practical advice focusing on after baby arrives. If you're looking for something to help him understand what you're gong through while you're pregnant, this isn't the book, but once you head to the hospital, this will give him some general direction (it is by no means a thorough instruction guide).
