Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth about Pregnancy and Childbirth by Jenny McCarthy


If you know and can handle McCarthy's humor, you will find this book quite funny.

I do not have a child nor is one on the way, yet I still laughed aloud and got squeamish at the appropriate moments.

She is honest, maybe too honest but it is a good thing because she reveals things, I have never heard women talk about or knew in relation to pregnancy.

Put about an hour or two aside for this short, addictive book.


Grade: A


From the Publisher
The acclaimed national bestseller-a humorously candid 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!
