Diary of a Mad Mother-to-be - Laura Wolf ... 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

I haven't been able to do much leisurely reading lately because of my Open University course keeping me busy, and most of my reading is to do with that to be honest! So when I am choosing my next read at the moment, I'm being quite fussy because I want to read something good, light-hearted and just easy to read. So when I was browsing my local library, I saw this bright pink book on the shelf, and after skimming the synopsis, it sounded like a book that appealed to me. So it came home with me and finally, 2 weeks later, I've finished it. At last. Diary of a Mad Mother-To-Be tells us the story of Amy Thomas-Stewart, a woman living in New York in the USA, and ...
