We've had a couple of scares already, made more poignant and terrifying after suffering a miscarriage earlier this year at the 7-week stage, but having made it through to 13 weeks now, we're feeling a lot more confident that everything's going to be ok.

This is our first child, so it's all new and exciting for us. I've already got a list of things to do to our flat, and will be getting my DIY hat on for the next few months. Plus actually buying a car, as we'll now need one of those (we live in London and don't currently have any use for one), as well as a million other things.

I've been reading my baby book (this one) religiously, and it's actually been a big help in figuring out that what she's going through isn't quite as unique as I had thought. Reading through various posts here, I'm glad to see that there's loads of us in the same boat too!

I liked this one Pregnancy for Dads

Doesn’t treat you like an idiot, has some humour.

nah man, dont worry about it. breath, it will come, your daughter's energy will tell you. just don't let family influence you and your wife.

focus on the birth, everything else kind of falls into place.

if they have birthing classes there, go. try to get as prepared as possible. write the birth plan together even if it goes out the window.


my wife bought me this book. I quite enjoyed it.

ladies, please stop reading here.

for the men, birth is a real shitty, really worrying camping trip, take a ton snacks (both salty and sweet, things that are easy to eat) take drinks (lots of water and isotonics) .

scout the area, is there a place where you can go buy her fresh coffee, some pastry and other things she may like near by ?

prepare to be hot , cold , cramped and uncomfortable through the process.

but its about her(and the little her) remember that and it will all be worth it in the end.

good luck buddy.

9 weeks here, and yep, it's hard not to be irrationally anxious. We've read plenty of sensible stuff, and we know that we are doing everything we can to play it safe; but it's still hard not to dwell on tiny little things.

My main advice, on thinking about it, is to try to de-stress by talking to someone about it - not your wife, necessarily - you don't want to add to her stress levels! But find a close friend, ideally one who has been through it before, and 'fess up and talk to them about it.

We've decided to tell a handful of people at this early stage, because really we value their support; and if we (heavens forbid) do lose the baby, we'll need their support anyway. We aren't telling people far and wide until after the week-12 scans; we don't want to have to un-tell people if things go wrong. But talking to a handful of close friends is the essential, IMHO.

And hang in there - it's terrifying to know that there's a 15-20% chance of miscarriage in the first trimester; those are way worse odds than for anything else you are likely to do! But also, those odds are mostly due to hormonal or biological factors - not to do with whether you used bug spray or ate the wrong food. I'm guessing there's a higher risk from worrying about bug spray, than from the bug spray itself.

If you want specific advice, as others say, avoid just googling. There are some good books out there - I'm really enjoying "Pregnancy for Men" for a lot of details for modern dads; also "Bumpology" for evidence-based scientific information about the real risks involved. I also hear good things about "Expecting Better" but haven't tried it yet.

My husband and I really enjoyed this when pregnant with #1 and have bought it for lots of expecting couples since! It's funny in places but has a lot of excellent information and is broken down into months, he used to read it out loud to me at the start of each month. It only really covers pregnancy (and maybe when you come home from hospital) so you'd need a different book for baby rearing
