Summary
There's a wealth of information out there for expectant moms on pregnancy and birth, but so often the dad is left out of the conversation. Male midwife Mark Harris seeks to redress the balance with this new book, drawing on his decades of experience with couples as they make the transition to being new parents. Covering topics from massage to sex and pain relief during labor to breastfeeding, this is a lively, honest, and frank discussion of pregnancy and birth from a man's point of view. Mark explores how to harness the power of birthing hormones, how to remain calm and aware in the birthing room, how to communicate effectively, and ultimately how to live the process of becoming a father.

Great listen
As an expecting father I have found that this book has helped to better connect with my partner. The information is delivered in an accessible manner and Mark provides some really useful tips and things you can do to encourage a positive birth environment. Thanks

Everything future dad or dad should listen to this
Honest, interesting, informative and funny.
Sounds like a nice bloke too!
Really helped me understand this process which I felt was alien. Easy to understand with facts and language that really just make sense!
I now feel like I have a place and can now help my wife the best I can through this natural and wonderful birth.
Nice one Mark! Thank you.

loved it! Must read for any male in the birth room
Although I'm not a man reading this I can see why this would be such a useful book for any bloke wanting to support their partners in labour. Great read.

The book I wish my husband had read
This book is a concise and readable overview of how to be a great birth partner. Great as an "all you need to know" book but also signposts to further reading if you wish. As a mother of 3 this is a book that I wish my husband had read.

great book for dad's to be
It's no longer ok for dad's to take a sideline. equally, it's really hard to find that support for men to encourage this hands on approach to pregnancy. this book is a great way of finding comfort in what is still a little hostile territory for men. it's a must read. I also recommend getting a physical copy for the diagrams as well!
