Pregnancy is Not for the Faint of Heart

Raising kids is hard work and it becomes so much easier if we allow ourselves time to laugh about it, rather than stress about it.

So take a half a second to sit back, put up your feet and relax while you read through this lens. Along the way, hopefully you will get a few laughs, and find something to share with your friends during your next free spare half a second.

Hope this lens will bring a lot of humor into what can be a very traumatic - but absolutely wonderful time in your life!

The Dudes Guide to Pregnancy 

Pregnancy for men

The Dudes' Guide to Pregnancy: Dealing with Your Expecting Wife, Coming Baby, and the End of Life as You Knew It

Amazon Price: $9.35 (as of 01/01/2010)Buy Now
List Price: $12.99

When a couple gets pregnant, typically, the first thing the mother-to-be does is rush out to the bookstore to buy the various pregnancy bibles. But how is the expectant father supposed to know what to expect? He could wait in the dark and take his cues from his partner, or he could prepare himself for anything and everything by seeking the counsel of two regular dudes, who have climbed the steep learning curve (and lived to tell) that comes when having a baby. THE DUDES' GUIDE TO PREGNANCY dispenses irreverent, honest, practical advice for the expectant father in an easy-to-understand--and often hilarious--man-to-man format. Taking you through the entire nine month process, the Dudes offer advice on what to expect from your newly pregnant wife (paranoia, morning sickness, enlarged breasts, no sex); the dos and don'ts of dealing with your wife's body and mood changes, your mother-in-law and other family members; and the nitty-gritty details of what is expected of you and how your life will be changing during the next 40 weeks. THE DUDES' GUIDE TO PREGNANCYgives twenty-something to forty-something men the indespensible tools and advice they need to maneuver the many ups and downs associated with impending fatherhood.
