Content to share with expectant fathers: Views of professionals focused on father involvement.

CONCLUSIONS: Despite lack of professional guidelines for expectant fathers, experts generally agreed on the content that should be shared with expectant fathers from pregnancy through early infancy, especially in the domains of infant support and partner support. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: This study can assist clinicians and practitioners on guidance to share with expectant fathers during their partner's pregnancy and the early postnatal period. Dissemination of such guidance to fathers can assist in benefiting all members of the family. PMID: 30611921 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
