Baby Laughs: The Naked Truth About the First Year of Mommyhood

New York Times bestseller

Jenny McCarthyâ€™s hilarious, no-holds-barred personality has made her an instantly recognizable TV personality and a bestselling author. InÂ Baby LaughsÂ she examines the full range of challenges that new mothers face, including:

* The humiliations of postnatal â€œnumbing spray,â€ Tucks medicated pads, and adult diapers; jelly belly, balding, and gum disease; and becoming a â€œfive-foot puke ragâ€ for the baby
* Heart-stopping terrors, such as baby manicures, breathing checks, and burp failures
* Inadequacies, such as lullaby illiteracy and the need for a â€œheavy rotationâ€ of toys, videos, and mobiles
* Daddy antics, such as infant wrestling, home-movie mania, sleeping like a log, and expecting sex
* Dueling grandmas, germ-ridden guests, Olympic-class competitive mommies, anorexic petsâ€” and much more.
Mothers and fathers will find much-needed relief and insight in this sometimes touching, sometimes gritty, but always perceptive and outrageously funny account of what it truly means to have your very own small bundle of joy.
