Good books for dad-to-be?

I was just on Amazon ordering some books for myself, but I realized it might be nice to order something specifically for DH. Any suggestions?

Thanks! Chat Icon

My DH bought The New Father's Panic Book, and his mother sent him The Expectant Father. I've glanced through both- I think they are both very thorough.

Re: Good books for dad-to-be?

I got him two books:

The Expectant Father: Facts, Tips and Advice for Dads-to-Be - which was recommended by the moms to be on Amazon

and

The Caveman's Pregnancy Companion: A Survival Guide for Expectant Fathers - which was recommended by the dads to be on Amazon.

Guess which one he reads more? Chat Icon

The Caveman one is actually pretty cute, funny and readable. The Expectant Father is a little technical.

I bought my DH "She's Having a Baby and I'm having a breakdown" -- I thought the title was cute, and it wasn't crazy long so I knew he would have the time to read it.

Ditto on "The Expectant Father" book. DH has it and he finds it informative.

Easy, light reading.
