The New Mom's Guide to New Dads
About this ebook
But what you've been desperately looking for is a guide that tells you what to do to help your partner figure out fatherhood because he's kinda driving you crazy and you need more help. Sure, there are a few books out there by dads, to dads. But you and I both know that dude you had a baby with is not the best at sharing his feelings and seeking help, let alone telling you he's freaked out about fatherhood.
Enter The New Mom's Guide to New Dads. Get enlightening, humorous-yet-useful insight into what guys are anxious about and what moms can do to maximize their partner's fatherhood potential. Flat out, more dads need to step up (and when they do, they'll realize how amazing it is to be an involved parent). Andrew Shaw, a father of three young children and an award-winning parenting columnist, is shining a light on what is often holding guys back from being the kind of dad you can shamelessly brag about to friends, as well as help you feel less stress.
"If the new father in your life is a mystery in flannel, this book is your answer."
Clint Edwards- Bestselling author of "I'm Sorry... Love, Your Husband" and "Silence is a Scary Sound."
"Why are dads-to-be so nervous? New moms are so excited to be parents, but for dads it's a mixed bag. These days a lot of dads want to step up and be involved parents, but they still face the same old fears and low expectations dads always have. Luckily, Andrew Shaw has a book "The New Mom's Guide to New Dads," full of humor and tips to help them understand what their partners are going through."
Doug Moe- Author, "Man Vs Child" - one of "Amazon's Best Humor Books"
"It's a great breakdown for women of what moms can expect from their husbands during the new baby process."

About the author
Andrew Shaw is an award-winning parenting columnist, former journalist, and creator of Instafather, a blog dedicated to helping new parents, especially dads. He is a married Pennsylvania-born father of three (a son and twin girls) who, like many men, hadn't held a baby more than once or twice before becoming a dad. Now, he's a full-fledged baby-wearing pro — and an advocate for involved fatherhood, especially after his experiences in the NICU and in co-raising three kids who at one point were all 3 and younger.
In between constantly getting these kids snacks, he’s a marketing strategist and a professional improv comedian who has toured across the mid-Atlantic.
In addition to Instather.com, Andrew’s work has been featured on SCARY MOMMY, THE GOOD MEN PROJECT, FATHERLY, and CENTRAL PENN PARENT. He's the author of "The New Mom's Guide to New Dads" and "The Guy's Guide to Being a Birth Partner."
