Love it: stocking up

Adorable, funny and true. And what a steal: I'm stocking up for baby shower gifts!

Every new mom should have one!

Finally! A book that tells parenting like it is - a difficult, never-ending set of hurdles that can only be safely overcome by adopting a seriously frivolous attitude. Forget trying to be perfect - this book tells you how to stay SANE in that first year, and the advice Londergan gives really works. I LOVE it! I gave it to two new moms who were already guilt-tripping and en route to prozac because they felt so inadequate and so unlike all those perfect moms they'd seen on TV. They were deeply relieved - and about a zillion times happier - when they realised their feelings were totally normal and started putting some of Londergan's great secret tips into action (her hilarious but effective tried-and-tested tips include the best her friends know, too). She's also brilliant at identifying all the pointless worries we moms nurture and telling you how to stop, re-track and grope your way - laughing - back to feeling human and even great again. And how to genuinely fall in love with your baby, which only really happens once all the pressure is off. I would totally recommend this book to anyone having their first baby who wants to know how real women become real, happy moms.

Hilarious!

A must-read for all new moms, or anyone else who wants to laugh at the author's advice/misadventures/successes in her zany, thoroughly modern life. I can't wait for Betty Londergan's next book!!

really smart and funny

This book is funny and there are so many bits of advice you can really follow and share. The style of writing is really unique and fun. This is a really great for single moms, too.

Made me laugh until it hurt

Read a preview and just loved it. A great new writer!
