Customer Reviews

Most entertaining of the expectand dad books!

Funny and informative. Bought this for hubby but of course read it first. Thicke is in great comedic form, lots of interesting facts, and although he has lots of physiological/medical info it's not overwhelming...Also a very quick read- laughed aloud alot and then passed it on to my better half.

Just what the doctor ordered!

After reading so many books that are filled with facts, statistics etc. It was REALLY fun to sit down with a lighthearted book that really made me laugh. I already knew the odds of a pregnant woman over 40 giving birth to a baby with Downs Syndrome, and why it's not OK to drink while you're pregnant. This is not the reason I went to a book by Alan Thicke. If you just need to be entertained and relate to the stories he tells, buy this book!

It was fun to see a man's point of view on pregnancy

I thought it was a good book, Alan showed the man's point of view which most of us woman can't see during the 9 months of pregancy. We know what we as woman are feeling but in this book we can see the man's side. I also enjoyed the quotes from other celebrities. This book show's another talent of the multi-talented Alan Thicke, he's a great author too.

How Men Have Babies: The Pregnant Fathers' Survival Guide

I thought the book was hilarious. Alan really showed pregnancy from a man's point a view. During my pregancy I know my husband shared a lot of the thoughts that were in the book. This book shows just how multi-talented Alan is. Not only is he a actor, singer and producer but this book shows that he is a best selling author as well.

No doubt that he knows what he's talking about!

Mr. Thicke has done a wonderful job of capturing how a new father feels. It's hard to find a good pregnancy/parenting book for fathers, but this one has got my vote. It was fun to sit down and read his thought on pregnancy and know that someone knows exactly what you are going through. I would recommend this to any new father. I only hope he writes a sequel about after the baby is born and all the fun adventures you'll go through.
