Men's experience of first fatherhood discovery: a descriptive study based on free hierarchical evocation by associative networks.

Conclusion: The participants proved interested and concerned. Fathers's presence and support should be solicited, accounted for, and valued by mothers-to-be and health professionals in all pregnancies. Involving fathers since pregnancy is essential for mental equilibrium, child-parent attachment, child and parent development, and family relationships.
