In this follow-up to the successful ‘From Lad to Dad’, a year in the life of a first-time father is documented, alongside information panels packed with practical ideas and advice for other first-time fathers. Once the baby is born, your life will be packed with new challenges to face and new skills to learn. You’re the Daddy will be your companion throughout your baby’s crucial first year and reassure you if you find that things are getting tough!

It follows the journey of Stephen Giles and his progress through the first year of his baby’s life. He tells his story with great humour, and plenty of practical ideas for other first-time fathers covering areas such as the conflict between work pressure and sleepless nights, your changing relationship with your partner, and how to keep the ‘competitive dad syndrome’ under control.
