Top 3 Funny Pregnancy Books
The “You Are A F*cking Awesome Mom” pregnancy bundle from Nurtured 9
pregnancy books & bundles that bring a little joy
to your nine months
Pregnancy is serious, life-changing business, but sometimes you just need to lighten up a little bit! If you don’t have many close girlfriends who’ve gone through pregnancy and are willing to share the nitty gritty details about everything that goes down (or you’re just up from some humor-infused story-telling) then we suggest picking up one of these three funny pregnancy books for an honest, straightforward, and most importantly - entertaining - take on the journey that is pregnancy. We all know these nine months aren’t all roses and Instagram-perfect moments, and these books to read during pregnancy will help you sit back, relax, and take it all in stride.
You Are A F*cking Awesome Mom by Leslie Anne Bruce
This book is “A much-needed voice of encouragement for every woman who had a baby and lost her mind.” Written by two-time mama and award-winning journalist Leslie Ann Bruce, You Are a F*cking Awesome Mom is jam packed with support, inspiration, and encouragement directly from another mama who’s been there!
Loaded with unfettered support from a mom who has been through it all, You Are a F*cking Awesome Mom offers a lifeline of encouragement, inspiration, and community for the new mama who got a baby, lost her mind, and desperately wants to find herself again.
The Girlfriends’ Guide to Pregnancy by Vicki Iovine
The title sums it up nicely. Reading this funny pregnancy book is like sitting down with your hilarious, unfiltered girlfriends who will tell it like it is. They deliver the info in a friendly, non-scary way, but they give you the honest truth so you’re well prepared for the road ahead! This funny book for new moms covers topics like what happens to your body, the many moods of pregnancy, staying stylish, and what you can really expect during these 40 weeks.
Belly Laughs by Jenny McCarthy
If you remember Jenny McCarthy from MTV’s Singled Out in the 90s, then you remember her frank, often crass sense of humor, and as you can imagine, she brings that same perspective to this book all about her experience with her 2002 pregnancy. As Booklist puts it, Jenny addresses some embarrassing pregnancy topics that other books for moms-to-be discuss too lightly and “treats them with a candor that borders on crude but that is refreshing, and, ultimately, refreshing.” In this funny book for new moms, she talks about everything from morning sickness and weight gain to acne and labor while reassuring women that they’re not alone!
