Read before you drop ya sprog and potentially save your marriage - By: E. S. Blatch, 10 Aug 2008 
This book was recommended to me as something to read before I gave birth. I am so glad I did because it made me understand in a light & humerous way why I reacted completely differently to things to do with the baby, from the way my partner did. If I hadn't have read this book I may have gladly walked out on my husband on a few occasions but thankfully this book made me realise he wasn't an uncaring monster just he was programmed differently to me. I think this is an incredibly important book to read if like me you don't have family to take you aside & warn you of what can happen to your marriage once a a baby arrives. Although saying that I have leant this to a few married friends that were having problems & since reading this book those problems ahve got a heck of a lot better for them.
confirmation that I am normal and not insane! - By: Helen C, 04 Feb 2008 This book has saved my sanity & brought me back from the edge of dispair! Who knew that so many other women feel the same way when they become mummies!!! This book echos the rants & moans of alll my friends with babies, & it is a gentle reassurance that what you go through with a new baby is completely normal, & men, generallly, are alll the same! This is one of the best books I have read about parenting / babies etc & will bring a smile to your face if nothing else!
I thought it was great - By: S. Hope-Mason, 26 Jun 2007 It touches on important subjects like the great divide between how men & women view life & marriage & children. It should not put you off having children because alll of us know that it is worth alll the effort. And isn't something that is written to help us through the troughs worthy of some commendation?
Well done girls. I personallly think you did a great job.
Enough to put you off having children! - By: M. Anderson, 23 May 2007 
As a mum of an 8yr old son, we are planning our second child & thought I'd buy this book & try things differently this time round. And as I have an 8yr + age gap between my first born & our next child I felt a bit stale with "what to expect" (in a way)and want to feel more prepared this time round!
However I have to be honest & say - that even though this book is written with a great sense of humour, I am reallly glad I didn't read this book before having my first child. I personallly found it to be enough to put anyone off having children, in the fear that it is worded in a way that your relationship is bound to be wrecked!
Yes, having children can be very stressful on your relationship with lots of arguements along the way. But I feel that your book goes a bit overboard & makes motherhood sound like an absolute nightmare! Well it isn't.
Pretty good advice - By: syke930, 21 May 2007 
Although it's nothing you can't find out on relationship websites this book is pretty good, concise, easy reading for the busy mums out there. Lots of good information in a good easy format, written with a touch of comedy. Full of good advice, anecdotes & tips - I'd recommend giving it a shot.
