Well, as a fellow dad-to-be, my mom recently gave me her copy of "The Book You Wish Your Parents Had Read" after having read it herself (I like her sense of humor there). Although I obviously can't speak from first-hand experience (yet) whether or not the suggestions in it hold up, it does seem very insightful so far and has helped me make sense of my own parents. It also lines up with quite a lot of things I had to work on during therapy for unprocessed ADHD related traumas.
If you're wondering about how to relate and connect with your future child I'd say this book could give some reassuring advice (although I fully expect that having a baby will be a "no battle plan survives contact with the enemy" kind of deal, no matter how much one tries to prepare)
