The ABC of D*A*D 
What to expect when you’re expecting – the men’s edition

excerpts:
Shagren answers a wide range of questions – when it’s safe to resume having sex
after childbirth, what to look for in a stroller, how a husband can support his
wife breast-feeding the baby. He even gets down to the nitty gritty – how the
shape and size of a woman’s nipples can help determine what to shop for when
you’re in the market for baby bottles. Not your usual guy talk.
...

Johnson says the Conscious Fathering class taught him about the importance of
physical touch and eye-to-eye contact in building a baby’s social cues. 

He also found that he can be a partner in breast-feeding: “If she has to get up
to do the feeding, I can take care of the peripheral things” like diaper
changing.
