Product Description
A man’s man trades beer bottles for baby bottles and lives to tell the tale
In high school, Michael Crider was the jokester, the drummer in a band, the Howie Mandel impersonator. Fast-forward ten years and the funny man has married and become the family man. The Guy’s Guide to Surviving Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the First Year of Fatherhood-Crider’s candid, down-to-earth account of his transformation-proves that even without much sleep, he has kept his sense of humor completely intact.
From the moment he hears the unexpected news that the pregnancy test is positive to the end of his son’s first year of life, Michael Crider is awed, anxious, and all-too-human. In between these milestones, he endures the aches and pains of his wife’s pregnancy (which had a clear impact on his own bodily comfort), swallows his pride when bunny wallpaper replaces his beloved Budweiser mirror, has a short and only partially-appreciated stint as her labor coach on the Big Day, and experiences every one of his son’s “firsts” as though they were his own. Honest, informative, hilarious, and heartwarming, The Guy’s Guide to Surviving Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the First Year of Fatherhood is a must-read for all new parents.

This is funny to read, expecially not being new parents and understanding exactly some of the things this guy is talking about. However, there is a lot of swearing (something we are not comfortable with)He also recommends lifestyles that we don’t agree with. We got past that and enjoyed the book, but would not be comfortable giving it as a gift.
Rating: 3 / 5
if you are looking for something serious ; look somewhere else , Writer Michael just shares his 9 month memories in a crack way, it is not all serious advices , it is not a serious guide.. just fun if you can laugh !? .. ( alhought he mentiones that he is not a doctor or specialist on pregn. or childhood )
