I bought this book for my husband to read. He has been more excited about the pregancy than I have (right now all I am is sick all the time). He loved this book to the point that he felt compelled to read parts of it out loud to me whether I was paying attention to him or not. The only down side is that the author breezes over things very quickly. It seemed to go from conception to birth very quickly, but it you what your man to actually read something informative and funny this is the book for you.

My husband really enjoyed this book. It was a funny, fast read and kept his attention.

My mother in law bought us books to read and got this one for my fiance. He is in Afghanistan at the moment and so I received the book to send and decided to read it first myself. I laughed pretty hard a few times to say the least and decided this is the perfect book for my fiance for two main reasons. 1) He HATES to read, and a short, humorous book will grab his attention just enough to be able to finish it. 2) He's a guy and frankly, they don't need to be bogged down with details like us women do. What they do need to know, this book offers and its how to support your woman during those interesting 9 months.

Needless to say, he finished the book! It's as the author intended, that a man should be able to finish it within a few short trips to the bathroom. I loved to hear the guy's perspective, which is completely different from a woman's, so naturally, men need to hear it from another guy. If you're looking for vast amount of information, this book won't help you, but feel free to buy this book with another, more detailed book to get the scientific and personal views on pregnancy. This book is meant to give you an insider's personal scoop through the journey from a man's perspective and to provide you with bits of information in layman's terms. If you're a dad that doesn't need to know it all or just someone who wants the comedic point of view of pregnancy, pick this one up because you will have a lot of good chuckles waiting for you.

This book is completely awful!!! I bought this book for my husband, thinking that it would help him better understand the issues of pregency. The comments about childbirth classes and having an epidural are awful (you are told that your wife should be given one, whether she wants one or not. The book never gives the many many reasons why an epidual may not be used)!!! This book is completely written from one person's point of view and lacks anything creditable!! I am debating whether or not I should even give this awful creation to my husband. Don't waste your money.

My husband blazed through this book in a day, laughing through most of it. Although there were a handful of topics I thought were missing, it was thorough enough for him. I plan to buy this book for every first-time dad I know in the future!
