Rate this book
She's had the Baby, you're a daddy -- now what? James Barron draws on his own experience, the experiences of countless others, and on insights from mothers on what they think new fathers should know to offer advice on balancing the demands of being a good father and a good husband, from the infant through the toddler years. He includes tips on: Hardly a standard child-rearing book, She's Had a Baby doesn't diagnose allergies or suggest developmentally appropriate toys. Rather, in bite-sized observations, Barron champions the joys and anxieties of daddyhood, while helping a man to cope with the ups and downs a relationship can go through during this time.

Un libro que no define bien si lo que quiere es tener una charla que ayuda para esos momentos o hacer reír por la vía de lo cínico.
En realidad cumple con esas dos funciones, es simpático y a la vez útil, pero llega a describir múltiples situaciones sociales que no concuerdan con algunas culturas o que simplemente la menor muestra de carácter pondría un alto a las entrometidas de la sociedad, la familia y los amigos que llegan a dar infinidad de comentarios o consejos que nunca se pidieron pero que asumen que es la respuesta universal.
Si. Ese consejo que no puedes dejar de dar, en este libro reirás al ver que también te pasa a ti.
Con buen humor y ligereza y estructurada por temas específicos, llevarás esta lectura durante esos primeros días de la paternidad, con un compañero en tu Buró nocturno que sabe cercanamente por lo que estas pasando. AJB
