In this book by DaddiLife Books, the dad writers behind the leading platform for dads have worked with natural birth and hypnobirthing experts to create a unique and in-depth guide for dads as positive birth partners.

The science of birth: Gain clarity and confidence on what drives your partner's oxytocin--the "love hormone" that underpins natural birth.

Hypnobirthing techniques: A unique toolkit for dads--from breathing techniques with your partner through to hypnobirthing affirmations, relaxation scripts, anchors, and more that empowers dads.

Birth planning: How to work with your partner to choose the right location for birth--whether that's a hospital, a birthing center, or home birth, and making a birth plan that both partners can action.

Being a true advocate: Making your partner feel safe, calm, and in control during birth, even in challenging circumstances. Understanding your rights when it comes to medication or when things don't go to plan.

Very informative!

Great book that goes into every aspect of birth. I’m expecting my first child in a few months and the book has helped me feel more confident. Thank you!

Eye opening!

I loved this audiobook. I found it easy to listen to and reassuring in my role as a father/husband. Honestly I have felt nervous about my wife's labor in the past. This stemmed from the large amount of pain she will experience and that I can't do anything to help. Although I now know that is false. I can do a lot to assist my lovely wife In labor and delivery. I plan to study this book extensively in the weeks leading up to her due date. I want to thank the author and everything who made this book possible. It's selfless acts like this that bring tears to my eyes. knowing that human nature is kind and loving brings peace to my heart.

Great Education for Dads!

This book is a great teaching and method for dads to learn to help their partners in pregnancy. The practices outlined in this book seem to be very positive and worth an expecting father and partner to read about to achieve a very positive pregnancy experience.

new way for expecting fathers2 help their partner

Hypnobirthing is the new thing! It's nice to see a new way that expecting fathers can help ease their parents into bringing a new life into the world.

Although I have never brought children into this world myself, I have quite a few friends that have. I've had one friend that was so scared, stressed, and hyperventilating during labor that she passed out and only woke up hours later AFTER her son was born. She lost crucial time with her so, which was very important to her. I'd like to think that had she and her partner had this book; it would've made a world of difference. She is expecting her second born soon, so that I will refer this audiobook to her.

With that being said, I learned that this technique helps you to connect with your body and breathe rather than just push the baby out. I've never thought of labor as a team project- I've always thought that birthing was about the expecting mother and her baby. This audiobook changed my perspective in a major way.

My favorite part about this audiobook is that it covers the history of birthing and how much has changed since the old days.
The techniques and affirmations covered in this audiobook are clear and easy to follow. My partner and I will refer to this handy guide when the time comes!

If you or someone you know is expecting a baby, gift this book to the father! It is an exceptional guide to Hypnobirthing and contains more than enough knowledge to birth 1,000 children.
