This book was a major disappointment to me after all the hype. I didn't find it humerous at all... moreso very negative towards parenting experiences. Rather than giving good information to new moms in her book, Ms McCarthy purported myths regarding breastfeeding, co-sleeping, infant feeding and sleeping schedules, birth, and more. She gave incorrect information about many things and was very derrogatory about situations such as breastfeeding even calling lactation consultants "Nursing Nazi"s. She showed her lack of true information when she described a let-down of her milk in the shower as it appearing that there were many holes not just one in her breast... when if she had sought out information on nursing, she would have learned that it is true that there are many openings in a nipple, not just one. She also compares sleeping with a baby to rolling over on her pet dog and pushing it off the bed. She gives incorrect information regarding postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis as well.
Overall, this book was a major disappointment and one that I am sad some new moms may read and view having a baby as a burden and hassle rather than the blessing it is. I would much rather recommend Girlfriend's Guide books for humor or Dr Sear's Baby Book for accurate information.

A follow-up to her hugely funny book "Belly Laughs", Jenny tackles the 1st year of motherhood and all the "fun" things it entails (baby poop, circumcision, losing the baby weight, etc.) Even though the topics aren't funny in and of themselves, Jenny tackles them with humor and truthfulness. A great read for the new mom!

This book is hilarious. It captures Jenny McCarthy's real and uncensored thoughts on being a first time Mommy.

Hilarious book about motherhood! Get ready to laugh out loud at her candid views of pregnancy and child birth.

A lighthearted, funny, quick read. Made me laugh in the first weeks of having my baby home. I could relate more than I expected.

I READ THIS BOOK AFTER I HAD MY DAUGHTER AND IT MADE ME GET OUT OF THE BABY BLUES IT IS SO FUNNY.

This book had some funny sections, but was not nearly as entertaining as Belly Laughs.

This book is so freaking funny. I love Janny McCarthy! She tells things like it really is, no sugar coating here.

Very cute. Good for a laugh during a difficult time! Easy read.

Congratulations, you’re a new mommy!

You’ve brought your brand-new bundle of joy home, and there’s so much to look forward to: photos; baby’s first word; clipping those oh-so-cute and very tiny fingernails; finding just the right stroller; sex again (gulp!); and, oh yes, losing the weight.
The joys of being a new mommy or daddy are endless, but so are the worries and the advice. Jenny McCarthy, the New York Times bestselling author of Belly Laughs, told you the truth about pregnancy and childbirth. Now she’s telling the truth about baby’s first year. Not one to hold back, but always funny, Jenny will tell you “everything about new motherhood your polite girlfriends won’t tell you.”*

With hilarious musings on desperately trying to recall lullabies, losing the weight, baby- proofing the house, encountering mommies with superbabies, postpartum depression, dueling grandmas, and still trying to lose the weight, Baby Laughs is the perfect companion for anyone trying to raise the next president, those just trying to get to the next naptime, and anyone who was ever in diapers.

Frank to the point of being crude at times. It had some funny moments and valuable tips, but I'm just not use to this type of humor. It was too gross for me.

Not anywhere near as laugh out loud funny as her first book - Belly Laughs. Maybe ol' Jim should have helped her write this one.

Funny!

A true and funny account on being a mom.

Quick read, excellent gift for new mothers or mothers-to-be. This book is as new, no dog-eared pages or markings.
