Summary
You are going to be a dad. What can you do today that will make life easier when your baby arrives?
First-Time Dad is a practical guide to supporting your partner through pregnancy and birth, learning everyday newborn care, and sharing the work during the first weeks at home.
Across twelve focused chapters, you will learn how to prepare useful questions for the maternity team, organize essential supplies, take an active role during labor, and practice the care tasks that build confidence. Clear examples help you arrange nighttime handoffs, support feeding, manage visitors, and discuss responsibilities without turning every tired conversation into an argument.
The book also covers safe-sleep essentials, recognizing concerns that need professional help, looking after your own mental health, and preparing for a return to work. A flexible six-week plan helps you turn what you hear into small, practical actions.
Written for new fathers who want to be dependable in everyday moments. All practical instructions are included in the audio; the optional companion offers space for contacts, handoffs, and household planning.
General parenting education. Follow your family’s maternity and pediatric care plans.
