Review

I was a bit skeptical when i recieved this as to how helpful it would be, off putting was the fact that after 5 pages i had not even started the book, it was some form of introduction explaining the changes in the book that inevitably happened with the advance of technologies etc...

I'm glad i continued to read, this is hilarious but you still walk away with real life information and facts about the possibilities of what could or will happen in the 9 months your wife/partner is pregnant, I say wife/pregnant but i'm sure most woman would also find this interesting, just to see how a man deals with the miracle of birth, I found this a lot more helpful than the mumbo jumbo leaflets and endless websites and forum discussions where people's opinions on child birth and their experiences become common law, This is lighthearted and informative, a very good read, aslong as you know that your experience is more than likely to differ you will walk away with something from it.

Covers advice on feeding, baby proofing the house, sleepless nights etc... in a really fun way.

Conclusion

A good book for first time parents of either sex, I plan on reading it again before February. A definate must have and a very fun read

8/10

I have edited this as the majority of people only found it "somewhat helpful"
