Enjoyable read. This is a quick read but with lots of good suggestions. I definitely enjoyed this book. Read it in little spurts over a week.
Very good
Easy read while pregnant. was really excited to read this book because it seemed really helpful with bite sized information (which is what I like in pregnancy related info. rather then dense books). The author includes many helpful tips broken into 25 short chapters. She also has some checklists to help new moms get a basic idea of things like what to include in a registry or hospital bag. Some of my favorite tips were download a pregnancy app, go to prenatal appointments together (with your baby daddy), stay in touch (physically with BD so they can feel baby movement against their skin), keep a journal/ photo album during your pregnancy, find free baby stuff, get a pregnancy pillow, etc.If you like A LOT of sarcasm and don’t mind some cursing, you probably won’t have any issues with this book. Also I feel like the 102 things to do in this book could have been condensed down to about 50-75 because not all 102 things will apply to every or even most moms. However, I loved the ending of this book (her master tip) and it really made up for any issue I had.I would recommend this book to other fellow first time pregnant ladies as a place to start in their new journey to motherhood.
