No Sex, No Sleep – The Unvarnished Truth About Being A Father

No Sex, No Sleep: So you’re going to be a Father tells the unvarnished truth about fatherhood.

The book covers everything from buggy shopping, the labour ward, naming your child, bringing them home and dealing with the in-laws, to later issues such as choosing a school, time-outs, toilet training and much more.
