You're Pregnant!! : A Guide for the Longest Nine Months of Your Life

Rating:
Summary: Do NOT skip this book!
Review: From the introduction, you can obviously tell this is going to be a book to help bring back some HUMOR to your pregnancy! When you've had enough of the 'miracle of birth' books and you want something that will agree with you that pregnancy is WEIRD, this is for you. It's absolutely the funniest book I've read and the humor is not corny! Maybe if you're totally uptight about your pregnancy, this wouldn't be funny, but to me it was and to a lot of people I've shared it with online. Please get this book!

Review: I purchased this book for my adult daughter who is pregnant with her first child, but read it first myself. While it's been a long time since I was pregnant, Ms. Hammer's book brought all of it roaring back in an absolutely hysterical way. I haven't laughed this hard for a long time. I am now going to buy another copy for me and one for a niece who is also pregnant. Any woman who has ever had a child will definitely relate to this book.

Summary: I tried to like it....
Review: I really did try to like this. I love humorous pregnancy books. I tend to scare myself silly with "What to Expect When You're Expecting" and googling various pregnancy complications. I need humorous pregnancy books to balance it. I loved "Belly Laughs" and "The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy". I hoped "You're Pregnant!" would be the same. It had a few funny moments in it, but I had a hard time keeping interested. It's not a bad read, but I will admit I'm glad I checked it out of the library. I had enough trouble finishing it the first time. I don't think I'd read it again.

Summary: Great comic relief for the mom-to-be!!
Review: I received this book from a friend in about the 5th month of my first pregnancy. It was the perfect comic relief especially for the first time mom who tends to be so serious and over analitical. It gives advice in such an over the top funny way, such as "...if you have to be told not to play with cat poop, maybe you shouldn't be a mother" kind of stuff. It is almost a spoof on all the pregnancy advice you get and try to digest from everyone!! Really great comic relief!

Summary: Don't read this while eating cereal!
Review: The funniest pregnancy book ever written. Kathryn Hammer's a real hoot! I laughed out loud all the way through this book. Just a little snippet to prove my point: "A boarder, a complete stranger has set up housekeeping inside your body, occupying an internal organ that until now had rarely come up in polite conversation." If you need break from all those pregnancy manuals that sound all the same, this is the book for you.

Summary: skip it
Review: This book would be more appropriate in the Humor section. It has very little useful information on pregnancy, and the humor is corny. If you want a humorous book that includes good information, try the Girlfriend's Guide -- it's full of information and a lot funnier.

Summary: Not at all Informative
Review: When the title says, "You're Pregnant: A Guide for the Longest Nine Months of Your Life," I am looking for pertinent information on pregnancy and the headaches that go along with it. This book is not at all informative, and actually gives me a headache when I read it for more than 10 minutes at a sitting. This is a satirical look at pregnancy, and offers no help in answering questions or figuring out solutions to common pregnancy problems. A total waste of money.
