    Pregnancy isn’t just happening to her, it’s happening to both of you.
     
    For first-time dads, it can feel like standing on the sidelines of a game you don’t understand, holding snacks and anxiety in equal measure. The Pregnant Dad is here to change that. With warmth, humor, and honesty, this modern guide helps men step confidently into one of the most transformative roles of their lives, not just as a father-to-be but as a true partner.
     
    From the first ultrasound jitters to the long nights before birth, Calen Vale walks you through the emotional, practical, and often hilarious sides of pregnancy from a dad’s point of view. You’ll learn how to support her when she’s tired, what to actually say during mood swings (and what not to), how to prepare for labor without panicking, and how to keep your sense of self while your world turns upside down.
     
    This isn’t a manual, it’s a survival guide with heart. A mix of real talk, relatable humor, and genuine insight that helps you grow alongside the woman you love and the life you’ve created together.
     
    Inside, you’ll discover:
     
    What she really needs from you at every stage (hint: it’s not just foot rubs)
     
    How to manage your stress while being her rock
     
    How to prepare for delivery day without feeling helpless
     
    What to expect emotionally when you finally become Dad
     
    How to balance love, partnership, and the chaos of new fatherhood
     
    Whether you’re terrified, excited, or both, The Pregnant Dad reminds you that you’re not alone and that fatherhood starts long before the baby arrives.

    Physics is the branch of science that seeks to understand the fundamental nature of the universe. It explores the properties of matter, energy, space, and time, and the interactions between them. From the smallest particles to the vastness of space, physics provides a framework for explaining how the world works. The discipline is built on the foundation of empirical observation, experimentation, and mathematical analysis. 
      
    At its core, physics is concerned with the laws that govern the behavior of objects, forces, and energy. These laws, which have been refined over centuries, are expressed in mathematical equations that predict outcomes with remarkable accuracy. Whether analyzing the motion of a falling apple or the behavior of distant galaxies, physics offers a universal language to describe the phenomena around us. One of its main goals is to uncover the underlying simplicity of nature, finding connections between seemingly different phenomena through the discovery of unifying principles. 
      
    The study of physics began in ancient civilizations, where early thinkers like Aristotle and Archimedes laid the groundwork for future developments. However, it wasn’t until the Renaissance period that physics began to emerge as a distinct scientific discipline, driven by figures such as Galileo Galilei and Isaac Newton. Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation revolutionized the way we understand movement and forces, forming the basis for classical mechanics.
