How to be a Dad: Pregnancy, birth and dirty nappies for the modern man by Oscar Duke
informative
fast-paced
4.5
I've read 4 parenting/pregnancy books now, a couple targeting the father and other more general ones and this is definitely my favourite. I specifically wanted a Dad book which wasn't targeting the stereotypical "Lad" type dad, this one was recommended and did not disappointed. It had all the information I'd come across in other books as well as some additional stuff, both general and for dads which was much appreciated.
The 3 part structure of each chapter, which aren't particularly long in the first place, make it really easy to read and digest. Having both the medical and personal viewpoints separate was really nice. I would have loved a bit more content, and it's the only reason it's not 5 stars. If your planning on reading any books as a dad I'd recommended putting this at the top of the list
