Just because a man isn't familiar with pregnancies doesn't mean he's an idiot, although the author seems to be writing for that audience. Less fluff and more facts, written intelligently and humorously is what this book purports to be. Yet the authors' only credentials seem to be that his wife had a baby and she cut Hilary Clintons hair a few times. Let her write a book...I'm sure it'd be more interesting than this.

Don't waste your time on this book.

I was so tired of reading pregnancy books about how wonderful pregnancy is. Yes, we all know that in the end it's worth it. But during those nine months of waiting, things happen to your body and mind that you (and no doubt your spouse) never could have imagined. The way that Ian Davis describes his wife's pregnancy and the experience that they shared, reminds us all that we need a sense of humor. My husband and I were laughing so hard as I read him some highlights that I had to put the book down at some points just to breathe! A great gift for any expecting couple or any couple just thinking about it.
