Not baby books lol. Something that will get me into the right headspace and help me embrace my life about to change. I’m 36 and this will be my first child and I still feel like I have a lot of growing up to do. I want to be the best me possible and be as prepared as possible for my wife.

What to expect when you’re expecting.

Fair Play
Congrats! I’m gonna recommend you a baby book, sorry! Try out Man vs Baby, it’s more entertainment but it will mentally prepare you for changing diapers. You will have less personal time now, but it has the flip side of making it more precious. Which in turn ends up making it feel more meaningful. Babies are great and being a bit of a big kid can be an upside for a dad to be. Kids are fun, you can do it!

The protagonist and his wife are expecting a baby. The alien invasion was a surprise.
For perspective.

You will fall in love so fast with the baby! My husband really enjoyed reading “The First Twelve Months of Life: Your Baby’s Growth Month by Month”
By Frank Caplan, etc.. And he liked to read it to me! I know it is an old book and there are used ones you can buy.
