More about the book

Are you a new or expecting dad eager to be the best father possible but unsure of what that entails? Do you have questions about delivery, hospital bills, and providing for your growing family? You might worry about not feeling like a father yet or bonding with your newborn, especially if you’ve never been “good with babies.” Concerns about intimacy with your partner and the loss of freedom, along with the chaos of parenting and balancing work and family, are common among new dads.

The author, drawing on his experience as a father of four, provides relatable insights without condescending “bro talk.” Inside, you’ll find answers to your toughest questions, equipping you with the skills and confidence needed to embrace fatherhood joyfully. Remember, being a good dad is a choice shaped by your commitment, not your background or circumstances. By following this advice, you’ll be ready to embrace your most important role with confidence when your baby arrives.
