This was a really quick read that had me laughing out loud. It was such a nice change from the usual serious or dull stuff.

The story was filled with humorous situations and witty remarks that kept me entertained from start to finish.

I found myself chuckling at the antics of the characters and the unexpected twists in the plot.

It was refreshing to come across something that could bring a smile to my face so easily.

This short piece of writing truly brightened up my day and reminded me of the power of humor.

I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a lighthearted and enjoyable read.

It's the kind of thing that you can pick up when you need a break from the stress of everyday life and just have a good laugh.

Overall, it was a great find and I'm glad I came across it.

Hilarious and completely relatable.

Yes, all pregnancies are different. Each one has its own unique characteristics and experiences.

But I love how raw her story is. She didn't hide or sugarcoat anything. She told it like it was, with all the good, the bad, and the ugly.

If you're not a very open person and find yourself to be private, then this probably isn't the read for you. It might be a bit too much for those who prefer to keep their personal lives under wraps.

However, if you're someone who enjoys a good laugh and can appreciate an honest account of pregnancy, then this is definitely worth checking out. You'll find yourself nodding along and maybe even learning a thing or two.

So, go ahead and give it a read. You might be surprised at how much you can relate to her story.

I had heard such wonderful things about this book. People were raving about how amazing it was. So, with great anticipation, I picked it up and started reading. Now that I've finished it, however, I feel rather let down.

Maybe it's because I haven't had many of the experiences that the author talks about. I found myself not really able to relate to some of the stories. Or perhaps it's because the super short chapters were a bit annoying. They felt disjointed and didn't allow for a smooth flow of the narrative.

Who knows for sure? I read this book in about an hour, and to be honest, I didn't feel like I learned anything new. It just didn't have that depth or substance that I was hoping for. And as for the humor, it definitely wasn't clever or smart humor in my opinion. The author talks about things like poo and other crotch-related topics, but it just didn't do it for me. I was expecting something more, something that would really make me laugh out loud and think at the same time. Sadly, this book just didn't deliver.

Overall, I was disappointed with this book. I had such high hopes, but it just didn't meet my expectations. I'm not sure if I would recommend it to others. Maybe if they have a different sense of humor or have had similar experiences, they might enjoy it more. But for me, it was a bit of a letdown.

This book was truly quite amusing.

It was recommended to me by a friend who has an 18-month-old child.

So, on a sudden impulse, I decided to purchase it.

As I delved into its pages, I found it not only highly entertaining but also thought-provoking.

It made me ponder over certain aspects that I had never considered before.

Overall, I am extremely glad that I took the time to read this book.

However, it's important to note that if you are seeking something that is primarily informational, then this book may not be the ideal starting point for you.

Nonetheless, in terms of being entertaining, it most definitely is.

It has the ability to capture your attention and keep you engaged throughout.

Whether you're looking for a light-hearted read or something to spark your imagination, this book has its own unique charm.

I am not nor have I ever been pregnant.

Yet, this book told me nothing that I did not already know. It seems that the content within its pages was rather familiar to me.

However, despite this, it is a light, comedic read. The author has a unique writing style that is filled with quirkiness.

This quirkiness is the same as what can be seen from the shows she has been in or hosted.

It makes the reading experience quite enjoyable and entertaining, even though the information may not be entirely new.

Overall, while the book may not offer a wealth of new knowledge, it does provide a fun and轻松的 read for those who are fans of the author's work or simply enjoy a light-hearted comedic book.

It's a quick and easy read that can be picked up and put down without much thought, perfect for those moments when you just want to relax and have a bit of fun.

So, if you're looking for a book that won't tax your brain too much but will still make you smile, this might just be the one for you.

Jenny McCarthy may not be regarded as a great writer in the traditional sense. However, her work offers a unique charm.

This particular piece was a delight to read, being both fun and light. It served as an excellent escape, especially during those long nights when I was struggling to sleep due to the various pregnancy symptoms that were plaguing me.

The mildly amusing nature of the content provided just the right amount of distraction, allowing me to temporarily forget about my discomfort and unwind.

Although it may not be a literary masterpiece, it definitely fulfilled its purpose for me during that challenging time. I would rate it a 2.5 out of 5 for its entertainment value and ability to provide a much-needed break from the realities of pregnancy.

Overall, it was a pleasant surprise and a welcome addition to my reading list during that particular phase of my life.

Jenny McCarthy's description of pregnancy is truly vivid.

At the beginning, it was so entertaining that I couldn't help but laugh out loud. However, as I continued reading, towards the middle part, I started to feel a bit bored.

The story seemed to be lacking in some variety and excitement. I found myself longing for something new and different to keep my interest piqued.

As a result, I unfortunately ended up not finishing the article. It's a shame because the beginning had so much potential, but it just couldn't maintain my attention throughout.

Perhaps if there had been more twists and turns, or a more diverse range of topics related to pregnancy, I would have been more engaged and eager to see how it all ended.

Nevertheless, I still appreciate Jenny McCarthy's attempt to share her experiences and perspectives on pregnancy in a unique and humorous way.

I had just quit reading "What to Expect When You're Expecting" when I began reading this book.

To my great surprise, this book turned out to be absolutely hilarious. It contains a wealth of information that is not typically found in other pregnancy-related books.

Jenny McCarthy's writing style is refreshingly to-the-point and brutally truthful. She doesn't sugarcoat anything, which I really appreciate.

I found myself laughing out loud throughout the entire book. It was such a joy to read.

I highly recommend this book to every pregnant woman I know. It not only provides valuable information but also offers a good dose of entertainment during what can be a stressful and overwhelming time.

If you're looking for a pregnancy book that is both informative and entertaining, this one is definitely worth checking out.

I did not expect to laugh my ass off, but I totally did.

And I firmly believe that every pregnant woman should read this.

She truly manages to make a joke out of everything gross that accompanies pregnancy, and it's simply awesome.

Pregnancy can be a challenging and often uncomfortable time, with various strange and unappealing things happening to a woman's body.

However, this author has a unique and hilarious way of looking at these experiences.

She takes what could be considered negative or embarrassing aspects and turns them into something humorous and relatable.

It's refreshing to see someone approach pregnancy with such a lighthearted and comical attitude.

By doing so, she not only provides entertainment but also offers a sense of comfort and validation to pregnant women everywhere.

Her ability to find the funny side of pregnancy is truly a gift, and I highly recommend this to all expecting mothers.

I truly despised this book.

As I have been extremely unwell due to my pregnancy, I thought that apart from "Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy", having a humorous perspective on pregnancy might be helpful.

However, at least "Girlfriend's" had some valuable information and content.

Jenny McCarthy's book was so lightweight and self-indulgent that I would have abandoned it if it hadn't taken me only 90 minutes to read.

I suppose I'm irritated with the author anyway because of her vaccination campaigning, and that might have influenced my evaluation.

But it's in the same vein of annoyance - what qualifies you as an expert anyway?

It seems that her book lacked substance and was more about her own self-promotion rather than providing useful insights or support for expectant mothers.

I was disappointed and felt that I wasted my time reading it.

Perhaps if she had focused more on the real experiences and challenges of pregnancy and less on her own agenda, the book might have been more worthwhile.

As it stands, I would not recommend this book to anyone looking for practical or engaging pregnancy literature.

My best friend gave me this book to read as I am pregnant with my second child.

She had just read it when she was pregnant with her first.

Let me tell you that this book is extremely hilarious!

I found myself laughing out loud continuously while reading it.

It is a quick and easy read, with chapters usually only a few pages long.

I am going to hold onto it for a while so that my husband can read it too.

There is a great deal of good humor in it that a pregnant woman's significant other would surely appreciate.

This book has not only entertained me but also provided some light-hearted moments during this special time of pregnancy.

I highly recommend it to all expectant mothers and their partners.

It's a wonderful way to relax and have a good laugh.
