Ditch the "just be supportive" advice. This is the checklist that tells you exactly what to do in the 9 months before the baby comes, for her, for the baby, and for you.
We're skipping the surface level stuff. You'll walk away knowing:
- What to handle each trimester, from the first prenatal appointment to the hospital bag, so you never wonder what you should be doing
- How to tell Braxton Hicks from real contractions, and the 5-1-1 rule for knowing when it's go time
- The birth prep that actually matters: hospital bag by week 36, car seat installed and inspected, pediatrician picked
- How to support her through symptoms, mood swings, and 3am wake-ups without guessing wrong
- What to say and do in the delivery room, including knowing her birth preferences well enough to advocate for them
I'm especially proud of the third trimester section. Most dads can't tell Braxton Hicks from real contractions until they're speeding to the hospital at 2am. After this, you will.
