Fatherhood

A Comprehensive Guide to Birth, Budgeting, Finding Flow, and Becoming a Happy Parent

By: Fatherly

Narrated by: K.C. Bragg

Becoming a parent can be daunting . . . terrifying, in fact.

This is especially true for dads. Where’s the road map? Well, you’re looking at it. This book from the editors of Fatherly, the largest digital brand for dads, is a one-stop source for fathers-to-be, empowering them to be the best parent they can be--with both confidence and joy.

New fathers grapple with both practical and existential questions: Is my baby supposed to do that? How do I afford to make my family thrive? How does swaddling work again? Who am I, and what kind of dad will I become?

Fatherhood is here to answer all of these questions and more.

This comprehensive guide walks fathers through everything they need to know--practically, emotionally, and philosophically--over the course of the first year of a baby’s life.

The content is divided by developmental stage:

• Pregnancy up to birth
• Infancy (the first 500 days)
• Toddlerhood (days 500 to 1,000)

By offering data, anecdotes, and expert-driven analysis, the authors prep dads for what’s ahead, letting them know they’re not alone on their journey.

Fatherhood is the book every father and father-to-be needs.

How-to images and a mission statement worksheet are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

Easy to listen

Book was lighthearted and casual to learn while I was running ahead of having a baby.

Straightforward and helpful

The format of this book was a welcomed relief when compared to many other ‘new dad’ books.

Too opinionated

A decent amount of good factual content followed by a lot of opinionated, cherry picked, bull crap. Cut the crap, nobody cares what your opinions are especially when you state it in such a distasteful, nonsensical way.
