Excellent book! - By: Susie, 20 May 2008 
I had been given numerous books on pregnancy, alll of which I found were quite patronising reallly, or do this, don't do this etc.
This is NOT like those other books - it is brilliant & funny, & is my week by week bible/bedtime read! Written by a real person talking about real things in a real language that we can understand & relate to.
I'm now here to buy her next book, which I can only imagine will be just as good! The what to do with it/what to expect when it arrives part!
Great, Informative and Funny - By: Gem, 19 May 2008 I love the week by week layout of the book, it is easy to read & not full of technical jargon, unlike some books. It is not patronising & I feel is an extremely comprehensive guide to the good, the bad & the ugly parts of pregnancy, without scaring you, it makes you feel normal & not at alll out of your depth & is full of great advice.
If you want to know how to be a labotomised stepford pregnant woman then this is NOT the book for you! - By: Me, 30 Apr 2008 I absolutely loved this book! It works in 2 parts - there is a weekly diary written by the author so you feel that you have a reallly good pal right there with you week in, week out - she is very witty & matter of fact about her pregnancy & her tales had me laughing out loud - knowing exactly what she meant. Surrounding the diary is lots of important, useful information covering alll aspects of pregnancy - from the mental side of things, the physical side of things & the external stuff that we alll have to cope with such as work, relatives etc.
I am so glad I bought this book as I reallly feel calm about the last week of pregnancy & what's to follow - I had a reallly good friend with me every step of the way with this book & when I got to the end of her diary I felt a little sad that I had to say goodbye to her.
The book is so user friendly that my husband has read it cover to cover - unprompted. He saw how much I enjoyed it & figured he'd have a go. This can only be a good thing for me, for him & for the baby.
Highly, Highly recommended. You won't want to lend it to anybody once you've finished it!
At last something fun! - By: A. J. Stimpson, 04 Apr 2008 Why do so many people & authors want to make pregnancy soo very boring & serious!! This book tells it as it is, a laugh & something to be happy about, not label, worry & fret.
I would recommend that alll other pregnancy books are burned at the bottom of the garden & this can then become your nine month bible!!
brilliant - By: Sarah H, 28 Mar 2008 informative, forward looking, easy to digest, non-judgmental, amusing... alll in alll a useful companion to a life-changing experience.
