Читать книгу Dad's Guide to Pregnancy For Dummies - Sharon Perkins - Страница 98

Sometimes, even in traditional mom-dad-and-baby families, you aren’t able to be around during a pregnancy. Your job might take you to another part of the country, or out of the country altogether. Dads today expect to play a much bigger role as a support person and active participant during pregnancy than they did a generation ago. Being unable to be as involved as you want can make for a difficult pregnancy, for both of you.

Fortunately, it’s never been easier to stay involved when you can’t be there physically, in most cases. No, it’s not the same as actually being there, but it’s better than it was 20 years ago, when today’s stay-in-touch technology was just a gleam in someone’s eye. With a little work, you can stay in the loop and involved during a long-distance pregnancy.
