Reddit mentions of Show Dad How: The New Dad's Guide to Baby's First Year

There isn’t a manual, but this is the next best thing.

Also, like the other redditor said: stop whatever you’re doing right now and breathe.

Edit: missed a word

A fun lighthearted parenting book for men, Be Prepared.

And another, Show Dad How.


Oh and, congratulations :)

I found this series of ["Show Me How"] (http://www.amazon.com/Show-Dad-How-Parenting-Magazine/dp/1616281111/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421526055&sr=8-1&keywords=show+dad+how)
books to be humorous and quite helpful, there's [one for mom] (http://www.amazon.com/Show-Mom-How-Parenting-Magazine/dp/161628112X/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1421526055&sr=8-3&keywords=show+dad+how) too.

Working at a book store I have had several new parents looking for the [Happiest Baby Books] (http://www.amazon.com/Happiest-Baby-Block-Harvey-Karp/dp/0553381466/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421526423&sr=8-1&keywords=happiest+baby+on+the+block) (there's one for toddler's too). The American Pediatric Association also has a [book] (http://www.amazon.com/Caring-Your-Baby-Young-Child/dp/0553393820/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421526506&sr=8-1&keywords=caring+for+your+baby+and+young+child+birth+to+age+5) that covers Pre-birth to 5 years. I read a chapter each month to keep me up to speed on the miles stones ahead, my son is 3 now and it was incredibly helpful.

Good luck!

Buy this. Show Dad How (Parenting Magazine): The Brand-New Dad's Guide to Baby's First Year

I have no clue what I'm doing. But I still feel pretty confident! Just read books, my friend got me a great book "Show Dad How."http://www.amazon.com/Show-Dad-How-Parenting-Magazine/dp/1616281111 it's just as funny as it is useful.

Too bad my DH will not read anything in print. It's a puzzling shame too because he is crazy mensa-intelligent. So far I've gotten him The Expectant Father when we found out I was pregnant and even the picture-book Show Dad How. He has opened neither of them, not even once, since he got them... Sigh.

Thank you for your encouragement, it means a lot on a panicked day like today!

This is a really cute book to read, very informational and entertaining. My husband loved it. It's highly recommended.

I'm due at the end of June, so I'm thinking that I'll put together my husband's hospital bag for him for Father's Day.

He has mentioned that he wants this diaper bag, so I might just pack it in that, and throw in a new daddy t-shirt (I haven't found one I love; I might just make one) and one or more of these books.

I bought my stepson this book for Christmas - http://www.amazon.com/Show-Dad-How-Parenting-Magazine/dp/1616281111. Their baby girl arrived 9 days ago and he says it's a great book and he wishes he'd had it months ago. Just sayin'.
