The baby owner's manual, operating instructions troubleshooting tips and advice on first year maintenance. By Louis borgenicht m.d. And joe borgenicht.
This book is hilarious but full of lists and useful, if humorously phrased like an electronic device manual or car manual, information. Also contains schematics for everything from the actual baby to best nursery furniture arrangement. My husband can't put it down, laughs hysterically when reading it, has bought it for other soon to be dads, and swears it has good information.
I second the Dude! You're Gonna be a Dad! Book! My husband loves it and it's written by a guy so I think it puts things in a way that makes sense to him.
Mine loved pregnancy sucks for men not sure of the author but he said it explained a lot of what I was going through and ways he could help. He really hasn't used the tips this time around!!
