About this listen

Congrats: You’re going to be a dad!

Now what?

Dude, relax; you’re going to be fine. But it wouldn’t hurt to get a few pointers - a road map of what lies ahead. That’s what this audiobook is for.

From Dude to Dad gives you the need-to-know essentials on pregnancy, birthing, and parenthood, and how it’s okay to be scared out of your mind. You’ll learn what the expecting mom is going through during each trimester, how you can be the best partner and dad-to-be, and how to immediately start bonding with the baby.

Be prepared for the arrival that will ultimately change your life in the best way possible.

This book was very candid and easy to listen to because it was written less clinically, and more easy to understand.
I did find the narrated was incredibly hard to listen to for more than 20-30mins at a time (might be great to put you to sleep)
The content was otherwise quite good, but very surface and simple, didn’t really get into it a lot, however was speaking both from experience and also provided some depth obtained by research.

I hate to say it but this book was a huge disappointment. I cringed in discomfort every time “dude” or “bro” was used. Probably a good read for men who have zero knowledge of relationships or how pregnancy works section about sex was extra uncomfortable and felt juvenile to me. I Much preferred the expectant Father. Much more detail, felt like it was written for an adult man.

Struggled to get through it
