Built for This: A Guide to Tackling New Dads' Top 16 Concerns About Pregnancy, Childbirth & Becoming a Father
Are you a new or expecting dad whose top priority is being the best father you can be, but you're not really certain what that looks like?
Do you wonder what will happen during delivery and how you can prepare ahead of time?
Are you asking yourself how you're going to pay the hospital bills and provide for your growing family?
You may even be concerned that you don't really "feel" like a father yet and worry you won't be able to bond with or care for your newborn because you've never been "good with babies."
Perhaps you're dreading the lack of sex and wondering when you'll get back to being intimate with your partner.
And, how about the loss of "freedom", the chaos of having kids in the house, or the seemingly impossible task of balancing the demands of work with being there for your family?
These thoughts are valid, and they're more common among new dads than you might realize. After all, you're entering unknown territory, and fatherhood is a major change that will affect your life forever.
Even though you're probably excited about becoming a dad, you'll inevitably have doubts and anxieties-all first-time parents do!
No dad is totally prepared when he has his first child, but this book, Built for This, will help you overcome those fears and worries.
Zach is enthusiastic about fatherhood while helping you understand and tackle your fears, answering your hardest questions, and equipping you with the clear thinking, skill, and confidence you need to be an awesome father.
Unlike so many of the other books written for new dads, he skips the condescending 'bro talk' and draws on his real-world experience as a father of four to relate man-to-man. Inside, you'll discover:
