You picked up this book because you are now-- or soon will be -- living with a pregnant woman. The title, "Dad", will make you a superhero. But it's only possible because a woman in your life goes through hell first.

This book will make you a support champion. Because you, my man, are the sidekick.

A sidekick knows there is more to the first trimester than ginger ale. A sidekick knows where they fit into a baby shower. Most importantly, a sidekick has a plan to get his hero's favorite tacos in any situation.

Packed with practical tips, and over 20 illustrations, this book is the perfect guide to help men thrive during pregnancy.

Written in a time where men weren't expected to do anything or know how to do anything, but i applaud the intent of the book, even if the proscriptions are too narrow. But maybe that is still these times.

Sidekick breaks down a lot of aspects of pregnancy into the specific trimester they are applicable to. As the author states, not everything in this book will happen for your wife’s pregnancy, but it is important to understand what is going on and how you can help.
