Publisher's Synopsis
First-Time Dad: A Survival Guide for New Fathers
Because babies don't come with instructions-and neither does fatherhood.
Welcome to fatherhood, where the diapers are explosive, the sleep is optional, and the love is absolutely overwhelming. Whether you're expecting your first child or you've just come home with your newborn and are wondering what just happened-this book is your honest, practical, and encouraging roadmap through it all.
Written by a regular dad who's been through the 3 AM feedings, nursery meltdowns (his and the baby's), and first-aid panics, First-Time Dad skips the judgment and fluff. Instead, it delivers real-world advice, emotional support, and humor when you need it most.
Inside you'll find:
✅ Step-by-step diaper and first-aid guides for when the unexpected strikes
✅ Tips for building the perfect nursery-on a real budget
✅ Survival strategies for sleep deprivation that won't make you feel like a zombie
✅ Bonding tools like skin-to-skin & babywearing to connect with your child from day one
✅ Guidance on navigating work, burnout, and being a true partner in parenthood
✅ A no-BS take on dad life-because you're not "helping," you're parenting
This isn't about becoming the "perfect" dad. (Spoiler alert: he doesn't exist.) It's about showing up, learning as you go, and loving fiercely. First-Time Dad will help you feel more confident, more capable, and a whole lot less alone in your parenting journey.
New fatherhood starts here. You've got this.
