Being Dad - Review & Giveaway! (CLOSED)

My husband isn't going to be a first time new dad but he's definitely going to be a dad again in the next couple of months. My husband and I were excited to get the opportunity to watch the DVD - Being Dad, Inspiration and Information for the Dads To Be.

My husband and I laughed, cried and seriously related to so much of what this DVD had to talk about. It's definitely more for a man, as it's a "sneak peek into pregnancy from a guy's point of view." I liked how it can give guys, who seem to be a little more intimidated with expressing their feelings that everyone is thinking and feeling the same thing. It's mostly about one man who's expecting and how he's going around the country talking to different men about their experiences. They talk to 40 dads, 5 experts and you hear about the entire 9 months. They talk about finding out they were pregnant, telling people, relating to people, ultrasounds, morning sickness, tiredness, cravings, sex, the actual birth and much more. My husband thought it was really good. I thought it was good for the most part! We also gave this to my brother in law and sister who just found out they were pregnant. They also thought this was a good DVD! The sequel to this DVD is
Being Dad2, all about bringing baby home and parenting from a guys point of view. My husband has yet to watch this, but I thought it was pretty good!

Buy It! Being Dad and Being Dad2 can be purchased at Barnes & Noble, Amazon.com, or TheParentingSpace.com for a suggested retail price of $29.99. What a fun gift to give the dad to be since they never seem to get anything. You can also find other DVD's from the Seedsman Group.

Win It! I have one of the Being Dad DVD's to give away to one Momma In Flip Flops2 reader. To Enter.

  1. This looks great! I would want this for my husband, we're expecting our first baby in a few months and though he is excited he is also nervous so I think this would be good for him.

  2. I have heard of this DVD! We have three expecting friends and are TTC ourselves. I have a feeling this is one that would be passed around all the couples. Some of our dad-to-be friends are embracing it and learning everything they can while others are terrified and shell-shocked!

  3. This would be great for my husband. He didn't read/watch anything about pregnancies when I was pregnant. I think he could learn a thing or two from this DVD for next time!

  4. I would love this for my husband!!! though this is his second time around I am sure that he would love a little touch up on things and he could definitely use some humor right now. I would also pass it on to all of those who are pregnant that I know.

  6. This looks great! My husband has been away for 15 months (military) and we really want more kids when he returns. Our son was 2 when daddy left and we've just celebrated his 4th birthday. This would be a great movie to "reconnect", remember our first "baby" experience and laugh together once my husband gets home - and prepare for more kids in our future!
