| |  | | | In Brief For most men, the only interesting part of pregnancy is what happens before the egg is fertilized. With that in mind, Ian Davis wrote My Boys Can Swim, a wry, witty, endlessly entertaining book that addresses the concerns of every dad-to-be. In addition to pregnancy basics, inside are unique guy insights you'll never find in those other pregnancy book, such as "Lamaze is just some fancy French word that doesn't mean much of anything. If the class was called 'Coping with the Excruciating Pains of Childbirth,' who would go?"
| | | | From The Publisher My 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 helpfuland hilariousinformation and insights on such topics as:
The Maternity Wardrobe: "A key part of the maternity wardrobe is maternity underwearparachute-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."
