It is a bit humorous, but it tackles all the big issues, talks about what's going on and how to support women, but also walks men through what to expect for themselves. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/good-books-for-dads-to-be#post-6301 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 12:04:45 +0000 MegWag 6301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For my hubs' birthday (not long after we found out I was pregnant) I tried to find him a book about being a dad.</p> <p>All of the options I found were either:</p> <p>A) Horribly patronizing and assumed he was totally clueless/ not really invested<br /> B) "Joke" books</p> <p>It really left a bad taste in my mouth.</p> <p>Can anyone recommend books they've found that address things from the man's perspective, whilst avoiding those two pitfalls? </p>
