Book Reviews of Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth about Pregnancy and Childbirth

Book Review: Definitely Not What I Thought It Would Be
Summary: 2 Stars

I purchased this book thinking it would be nice to read a more light hearted pregnancy book than books like "What To Expect When You're Expecting". While I wasn't really offended by her boldness, I was very turned off by the insensitivity her husband had towards her when she had hormonal outbursts, the fact that she talked so much about how ugly and fat pregnant woman become, and the fact that she chose to get her hair blown out while she was having contractions rather than get her butt to the doctor. What in the heck was wrong with her? I definitely won't be recommending this to anyone. (Though I really did like her "instructions" for daddys to be)

Summary of Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth about Pregnancy and Childbirth

The acclaimed national bestseller-a no-holds-barred account of what you can really expect when you're expecting

Oh, the joys of pregnancy! There's the gassiness, constipation, queasiness, and exhaustion, the forgetfulness, crankiness, and the constant worry. Of course, no woman is spared the discomforts and humiliations of pregnancy, but most are too polite to complain or too embarrassed to talk about them. Not Jenny McCarthy!

In the New York Times best-selling Belly Laughs, actress and new mother Jenny McCarthy reveals the naked truth about the tremendous joys, the excruciating pains, and the unseemly disfigurement that go along with pregnancy. Never shy, frequently crude, and always laugh-out-loud funny, McCarthy covers it all in the grittiest of girlfriend detail. From morning sickness and hormonal rage, to hemorrhoids, pregnant sex, and the torture and sweet relief that is delivery, Belly Laughs is must-read comic relief for anyone who is pregnant, who has ever been pregnant, is trying to get pregnant, or indeed, has ever been born!
