My Boys Can Swim! by Ian Davis
Finally--A Pregnancy Book That Won't Put Men to SleepMy Boys Can Swim tells real men everything they really want to know about pregnancy, such as: How much is it going to cost? Why does your wife primp before seeing her doctor when she hasn't put a stitch of make-up on for you in months? And, most important, what's it going to do to your sex life?
This rollicking, laugh-out-loud book is for expectant dads in search of bottom-line pregnancy information, without all that boring touchy-feely stuff you find in those books written for women. Inside you'll discover helpful--and hilarious--information and insights on such topics as:
The Maternity Wardrobe: A key part of the maternity wardrobe is maternity underwear--parachute-like undies big enough to fit an NFL defensive lineman.
Baby Names: Don't give your kids mockable names like Thaddeus, which is Greek for 'I'm a dork and should be beaten up.'
The Birth: No one told me it's normal that babies' heads can be misshapen at birth. I was convinced that my wife gave birth to Veldar, the conehead.
