Halle Berry

 

Gabriel Aubry has been brushing up on his parenting skills and pampering his pregnant girlfriend Halle Berry at the same time.

Aubry has been going through parenting books as the birth of the baby draws near.

"I've been in preparation mode for five months," People Magazine quoted Aubry, as telling Extra.

"I've read a lot of books," he added.

Gabriel was asked if he had any recommendations for first time parents, according to him, he found Dr. Phil Macgraw's book very helpful.

"There's a good one that Dr. Phil did [titled] Family First. Great book. I recommend it," he said.

Besides preparing how to be a good father, Aubry has also been learning how to ease Berry's cravings. He has been massaging her feet and making sure that her craving for food is being fulfilled.

He also told People this week that he's been talking to the baby.

"[I] talk in the mic in her bellybutton ... that's what we call it," he said.
