Careful, straightforward, and nearly encyclopedic in covering just about every imaginable baby-related topic...Will be helpful to any first-time father and many who already have children...This is a book that fathers-to-be can read as narrative or in little bits...The layout makes the authors' points easy to read and absorb...Curtis and Schuler are excellent, no-nonsense guides to one of the greatest of all life-changing events.

Young fathers-to-be out there, older fathers-to-be out there, I would highly recommend you read Your Pregnancy for the Father-to-Be . This book is filled with advice but is not encyclopedic to read. You can follow its suggestions in a realistic way. It not only teaches about pregnancy and the huge changes going on in your partner, it also explains the emotional and sometimes physical changes you will experience.

When he speaks, it's easy to see why Dr. Glade B. Curtis has become a best-selling author of pregnancy books. He's warm and articulate and doesn't appear easily rattled. Ask a question and the Utah-based doctor responds with ease. The same is true for his books, including the recently updated Your Pregnancy for the Father-to-Be . It...seems to reach the right balance between being informative and not delving too much into the scary complications that can arise with pregnancy...Each chapter also includes a lot of at-a-glance information that is easy to digest.

Gives dads essential information on what his partner is going through...This book walks dads through every aspect and gives helpful advice at each turn. This is a welcome addition to the 'Your Pregnancy' library.
