Pregnancy, birth & baby care

"With the role of fathers having changed dramatically over the years and the number of stay-at-home dads increasing daily, there is a greater demand for books that speak to men about the ins and outs of childbirth and fatherhood. Who better to inform the dudes than Chris Pegula, America's leading parenting expert for men? Chris's Diaper Dude products have appeared in retail outlets such as Babies ""R"" Us and Buy Buy Baby and he's promoted them on TV shows like Rachael Ray, Ellen, Nate Berkus Show, E! News, and The Oprah Winfrey Show (and soon on Brooke Burke's modernmom.com, where he will be a video and blog contributor).

Chris's philosophy is simple- You do not have to lose your identity after you become a father. In From Dude to Dad, Pegula provides helpful guidance and need-to-know essentials on pregnancy, birthing, parenthood, and how it's okay to be scared out of your mind. Yet unlike many books in this category, Pegula also delves into the interpersonal side of parenting, making this the book wives will want to buy for their husbands. From Dude to Dad will serve as a resource for couples to navigate through this magical yet stressful time and to get closer in the process.

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 book 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 baby.

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