A Resource About Advice for Fathers-to-Be


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Yes it is true, a father has considerable influence on the well being of
his baby, and having a baby is no longer considered to be the responsibility
of the mother alone.  The entire lifestyle of the father, including the
environment in which he works, his diet, daily habits and even his attitudes
all touch the development of his unborn offspring.  A new brochure, developed
by the Greater New York March of Dimes, and the March of Dimes Birth Defect
Foundation, provides a wealth of information about this subject.  This
informative brochure is entitled; "Men Have Babies Too:  A Guide for
Fathers-to-Be" and answers many questions commonly asked by expectant fathers.
A table showing a selected list of reproductive hazards makes this publication
a must for all prospective Dads.  Your copy is free and may be obtained by
writing to:  Fathers-to-Be, Greater New York March of Dimes, 233 Park Avenue
South, New York, NY 10003.  A stamped self addressed business sized envelope
is required.  A list of organizations that can be the source of additional
information and help is also included in this important publication.
