ABOUT THE BOOK
"This book was recommended to me as something to read before I gave birth. I am so glad I did because it made me understand in a light and humerous way why I reacted completely differently to things to do with the baby, from the way my partner did. If I hadn't have read this book I may have gladly walked out on my husband on a few occasions but thankfully this book made me realise he wasn't an uncaring monster just he was programmed differently to me. I think this is an incredibly important book to read if like me you don't have family to take you aside and warn you of what can happen to your marriage once a a baby arrives. Although saying that I have leant this to a few married friends that were having problems and since reading this book those problems ahve got a heck of a lot better for them."

"This book has saved my sanity and brought me back from the edge of dispair! Who knew that so many other women feel the same way when they become mummies!!! This book echos the rants and moans of all my friends with babies, and it is a gentle reassurance that what you go through with a new baby is completely normal, and men, generally, are all the same! This is one of the best books I have read about parenting / babies etc and will bring a smile to your face if nothing else!"

"It touches on important subjects like the great divide between how men and women view life and marriage and children. It should not put you off having children because all of us know that it is worth all the effort. And isn't something that is written to help us through the troughs worthy of some commendation?
Well done girls. I personally think you did a great job.

"As a mum of an 8yr old son, we are planning our second child and thought I'd buy this book and try things differently this time round. And as I have an 8yr + age gap between my first born and our next child I felt a bit stale with "what to expect" (in a way)and want to feel more prepared this time round!
However I have to be honest and say - that even though this book is written with a great sense of humour, I am really glad I didn't read this book before having my first child. I personally found it to be enough to put anyone off having children, in the fear that it is worded in a way that your relationship is bound to be wrecked!
Yes, having children can be very stressful on your relationship with lots of arguements along the way. But I feel that your book goes a bit overboard and makes motherhood sound like an absolute nightmare! Well it isn't."

"Although it's nothing you can't find out on relationship websites this book is pretty good, concise, easy reading for the busy mums out there. Lots of good information in a good easy format, written with a touch of comedy. Full of good advice, anecdotes and tips - I'd recommend giving it a shot."
