Belly Laughs by Jenny McCarthy ~ Review

I have to say, I was a little disappointed that I didn't learn anything from reading this book! Maybe I should count myself lucky that I have great friends and access to the internet to learn about the many potential unsavory side-effects of pregnancy. Perhaps women in general are a lot more open about pregnancy now than they used to be- this book was originally written ten years ago. If you think your friends have been holding back, or if you're having a tough time with something and you think you're the only one experiencing those symptoms, maybe this book would be truly enlightening for you! I think I did have one laugh-out-loud moment, but for the most part I didn't think the author's delivery was particularly witty or clever. Again maybe I'm blessed with witty clever friends and just failed to appreciate her talent :-P It was a relief, however, to hear that no one, not even famous gorgeous-playmate-actresses are exempt from the challenges of pregnancy - I think that was the only valuable take-away I got from reading this book.
