'Either we're having a baby or getting a cat. And since our lease says no pets, I guess it's a baby!' Happily married to Stephen for two years, Amy wants a baby. And it's supposed to be so easy: throw away the contraception, get an obstetrician - right? Wrong. With the help of BABY HOW, BABY NOW magazine [Fifty pages on how to conceive! How do teenage mothers do it?] and an inaudible gynaecologist she dubs the Crotch Whisperer, Amy finds there's much more to getting pregnant than meets the eye. And once you've managed it, things don't necessarily improve. There's the all day morning sickness. The ban on sushi. Prenatal yoga. Amy can only hope it will all be worth it in the end. She's determined to have her baby without derailing her career, losing her sex appeal or disrupting those fragile relationships with family and friends. Ha! If only life were that simple... DIARY OF A MAD MOTHER-TO-BE is the wonderfully funny return of Amy Thomas, previously a Mad Bride, now turning her thoughts to motherhood.

The follow on from Diary of a Mad Bride.
This book was brillant from beginning to end. I laughed so much most of the way through it. Also informative in a funny way. I could relate to most of the new symptoms she discovered during her pregnancy. A much funnier book than Diary of a Mad Bride. I would highly recommend this book.

Highly entertaining
I'd not read Diary of a Mad Bride but can't imagine it being as funny as Diary of a Mad Mother-to-be. The story follows Amy who decides she's ready to have a baby. Read more

Amusing yet annoying
I found this book quite amusing but really annoying at the same time. The main character decides to have a baby but is really ignorant of most things she would need to know and... Read more
