Your child is coming. And nobody tells you what it's really like.
The nights nobody mentions. The friends who disappear. The moment in the delivery room when you feel useless - and you're not. The question that keeps you up at night: Can I even do this?
This book answers it. Honest, direct, man to man - no sugarcoating, no parenting-guide filler.
The author had a father who was a bad example. That is exactly why he wrote this book: so that from day one, you can be the father he never had.
Across 13 chapters you'll learn:
• What the nine months really bring - and how to prepare your head, body, and bank account
• Why your wife is your teammate now - and how the two of you survive the first hundred days without losing each other
• What your real job is in the delivery room (spoiler: don't act - hold)
• The taboo no book talks about: what it means when the overwhelming love doesn't arrive right away
• How to make sure your own father's mistakes end with you - instead of living on in your child
At the end: The 13 Sentences - one page that sums up the whole book. Tear it out, photograph it, stick it on the fridge.
The perfect gift for dads-to-be - for the pregnancy announcement, the baby shower, or just because someone believes in him.
You don't have to be a good father today. You only have to be a man who has decided to become one. This book walks that road with you.
