Very comforting

Me and my girlfriend are considering having a baby so I wanted to a little research by listening to this book. I'm glad I did because I got to learn so much about being a father and what to expect. Plus, the best part about this audiobook has to be the writers willingness to show some humility. He takes you though his journey of being a father including all the mistakes and worries along the way. It's comforting to here this because it relieves some of the pressure to do well as a father.

Wow, What a Book!

Helpful Matthew really does a great job here on the narration. I think most fathers know that baby's first year is no walk in the park. It's best to be armed with truth and understanding and this book gives a great insight into what to expect and how to cope whilst a baby grows into a toddler. A lot of thought has gone into this audiobook and it deserves 5 stars..

Step by step guide into fatherhood

Being there through birth and watching your child grow from a tiny baby into a toddler is one of the sweetest moments of parenthood, but this can be daunting if you do not know what to expect and how best to deal with this. First Time Father: Baby First Year prepares you for the importance of a father's role in a child's life and why you need to start very early. It helps you to understand how to maintain a work-life balance while you're still there for your baby; I particularly found the advice very helpful as it covers a lot of things that I would never have thought of. Highly recommended.

Informative

First Time Father: Baby's First Year: This book organized and created the tips for a first time dad on the changes that will occur in different aspects of your life with a new born, personal changes, professional, family life and how to manage effectively and create a balance.
It is true that bring a new life into the world is life changing for a new dad, as it is for a first time mom. There plenty of first time mom books and fewer first time dad books, so this book is incredible needed. This book also provide tips on how men should support their partner by making the process fun and enjoyable. Thereby creating memorable moments for each other. Fantastic read!
