Books for a Dad to be?
DF has mentioned that he would really like a book about the pregnancy and parenthood for him to read. I think it's a great idea too because I've experienced it before but he doesn't and I don't want him to feel like I know things and he doesn't have a clue.
Any suggestions? It doesn't necessarily need to be one book that covers everything.

Mmm I'm not sure. Df never asks. But I get babycentre and a couooe of other emails every week and I forward them onto him and he reads them :)

My DH read the book, "So you're going to be a Dad" by Peter Downey (?) He loved it :)

A fantastic book is "Dad's pregnant too" by Harlan Cohen. It explains things without patronising or putting men down, which I think so many "dad" books do. DH also subscribed to the weekly email updates which kept him informed.
Another great resource for men is the Beer and Bubs course. They're run in most capital cities and are held at a pub, just for men. They're about 2-3 hours. DH used information from that to really help at DS1's birth. He knew stuff even I didnt know.

I know it's not a book but my DH really related to the Being Dad DVDs, there were two in the series when I bought them a few years ago.
