This book stands out from the many pregnancy guides because it’s written from the male perspective with honesty, levity, and actionable tips. John Pfeiffer combines personal anecdotes—about morning sickness, nursery setup, and last-minute hospital runs—with practical checklists that help you plan and communicate effectively. If you’re searching for a bestselling-author-style, relatable book collection for new dads or a thoughtful gift set for a baby shower, this paperback edition belongs on your shelf.

What you'll find inside

Pfeiffer walks you through the nine months from the moment the test turns positive to the drive to the delivery room. He covers topics most men worry about but rarely discuss: how to be a supportive partner during emotional ups and downs, how to participate in medical appointments, decisions about names and hospitals, and even the small but meaningful choices—like the color of the car-seat cover. The tone is encouraging and realistic: be positive, stay involved, and speak up when decisions need to be made.

Author background

John Pfeiffer writes from experience—he lives with his family on the outskirts of Atlanta, Georgia, and has navigated pregnancy and parenting firsthand. His voice is one of an experienced coach rather than a clinical manual, which makes this an accessible children’s series companion for dads who prefer practical storytelling. Trusted by parents who want humor with their how-to advice, this book builds confidence without sounding preachy.
