Summary

Of all the worldly experiences, nothing beats being a dad! But to enjoy this momentous new role to the max, you’re going to need some indispensable advice…from a man! 

Not long from now, you are going to be able to hold the most precious thing in the world in your arms. But that doesn’t mean to say you can’t feel terrified! 

Do you feel that, as mom is tossing and turning to try and get comfortable, your head is spinning with questions like:

“What if I’m no good at this?”

Or…

“Am I going to be that dad who drops the baby?”

For moms, there are a ton of books preparing them for every change and every stage. Let’s face it, the only set of instructions men get is the one in the pregnancy test. 

They are left to figure out the rest—on top of supporting their partners.

To make the process less daunting, you need to know exactly what new responsibilities you will have and what challenges lay ahead of you.

This is why a dad of three, who really has been through it all, has put together the man’s manual on pregnancy, babies, and toddlers.

In The First Time Father two-in-one value bundle, you will discover:

  • A week-by-week outline of pregnancy phases so that you know what to do every step of the way
  • The preparational steps you need to take before your baby is born—educate yourself, broaden your knowledge, and know how to do things right from the start
  • Carefully structured steps to navigate you through every stage from pregnancy and delivery to coming home with your newborn
  • No-nonsense advice about the baby items you actually need, diaper changing mastery, and nighttime routines
  • Clear directions for raising a newborn and cultivating a healthy father-child relationship as your baby grows—with age-appropriate games and discipline techniques
  • The essential instructions to prepare yourself mentally, physically, and emotionally for fatherhood
  • Balancing work-life and parent-life—how to prioritize so that you’re there for your child while still providing for your family
  • Helpful information on a newborn’s development—know all about their emotional, mental, and social advancements in life
  • Some of the best advice that new dads need to evolve during fatherhood and give their children the best life they deserve
  • The true needs of your child—surefire ways to build an everlasting relationship with your toddler filled with trust and love

And much more.

You are about to embark on the most incredible, life-changing experience of your life. It’s perfectly normal to have questions and even the odd moment of panic.

The best way to feel confident that you are the best dad out there is to have information and a plan—one foot in front of the other, one minute at a time!

All the knowledge to make a plan, feel reassured, and be a rock for your partner can be found in this value bundle.

Great book for dads and soon to be dads!

I love that this book not only takes you through pregnancy but also through the beginning years of the baby. It is nice to know that my husband feels more prepared for fatherhood and is ready to go through this journey with me.

With so many books to support the mom, I am glad this one focuses on the father. I would recommend it!

Complete Bundle for First time father's!

I've always come across books that help first time moms with their emotions, challenges and upcoming journey, but there has been no appropriate book for first time fathers. This audio book is a complete bundle pack since it has got great stuff for first time fathers and include interesting strategies to cope up with a major change he's going to come across. I really appreciate author's initiative and explaining everything with so much detail and perfection that i believe all the first time father's will be quite confident after reading this. The book highlights the important role a father plays in his child's life. A highly recommended read! Therapeutic

Really Helpful for New Dads

I remember when we were expecting our first child. My husband was anxious about what it would mean to father a child because he had never cared for a child in his life. We read a few books together and he felt that no writer was capturing it well enough for him - 'they seemed too excited about the idea of becoming a slave to a new baby,' he said. When I got this book, I wanted us to listen to it together and by chapter 2, he was convinced that this is the book that would have done it for him back then. We heard about burping and changing diapers in a light hearted but sensible way. Get this book if you are trying to put together a care package for a new dad. They will love it and benefit from it! I promise.

2 in 1 pacakage deal!

I already have one child with one on the way to say the first one has completely prepared me for the second would not be true. I am grateful to have found this book as it has brought to mind things like mindset, managing finances, and the one i needed help with the most balancing work and parent life.
I love being able to know what's going on with my baby's development this this time. I feel a closer bond with my wife and i can actually chat with her about what's going on in her belly!
I love being a dad but i was feeling overwhelmed with another on the way. This book has provided me with knowledge that has given me confidence to accept it and move forward with joy and support my wife through the rest of her hard work making this baby!

Very Useful

I got this for my mate who is due to be a father in 5 weeks, he told me many times about how worried he was but after listening to this (although he still has little worries) he seems to be much more chilled out and confident. He says this book goes through so many scenarios and tips which he found very comforting. He recommends this book to all new fathers as it gives out the information you may need!

Dad's Need Support Too!

We tend to only think about the mother when a baby's on the way. But the father has a very new experience as well especially once the baby is born. This book provides great information for new fathers from one that experienced it himself. It's an easy read that gives you the steps necessary to conquer the trials of becoming a new dad, including what to expect of the mother as she's going through this new experience. Highly recommend!

Love it!

Great book for soon to be dads! While starting a family is beauitful and rewarding, it is equally as stressful to both parents. There are tonnes of books out there for new moms but very little for new dads. The book has a lot of value and my husband loves it!
The narration also makes an easy listen. I’ve already recommended this book to my friends!

Such A Great Resource!

I couldn't have found this book at a better time. My wife is 6 months pregnant with our first child. I am the youngest in my family so I know what it is like to take care of my nieces and nephews, but I am trying to prepare for my time as a first time father. This book has definitely helped me realize that there is so much I don't know, but I feel more confident that I can handle what is coming my way. I highly recommend this book!
