Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth About Pregnancy and Childbirth

by JennyMcCarthy (Author)

Synopsis

Oh, the joys of pregnancy! There's the gasiness, constipation, queasiness, and exhaustion; the forgetfulness, crankiness, and the constant worry. Of course, no woman is spared these discomforts and humiliations, but most are too polite to complain or too embarrassed to talk about them. Not Jenny McCarthy!In Belly Laughs, the actress and new mother reveals the naked truth about the tremendous mood swings, 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. With tips and hilarious musings on morning sickness and hormonal rage, 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!

Media Reviews
One of the most honest, funny accounts I've read of pregnancy to date. --Always Aubrey
Jam packed with side splitting stories...The cool part about the book is that it doesn't really matter if you have 1 kid or 10 or if you're a guy or a girl. McCarthy's book has a little something for everyone...Graphic yet hysterical stories...A fun quick read that both you and your significant other can enjoy.

A book for the expectant mother who needs a few moments of frivolity.

Brutally honest and funny in a way the other pregnancy books wouldn't dare.
