`The laugh-out-loud answer to the guide that has terrified millions!`

So the pregnancy test is positive, and the only thing growing faster than your appetite for anything fried is your list of questions: How long until I have to pay through the nose for maternity wear? Is there anything I can do to prevent the scrapbooking instinct from kicking in? Relax. The advice in this book will be as easily digested as the now - forbidden caffeine you used to chug by the vat.

Sure, having your kidneys double as someone`s couch sounds like kind of a downer, but that`s just all the more reason why every pregnant woman needs this hysterical send-up. Mary K. Moore not only covers the 40 weeks of pregnancy but also tackles the stupor that is baby`s first six months, including: Naming baby: fruit or action verb? Birth plans: your dreams, a doctor`s comic relief The politics of choosing diapers: landfill landmines or inconvenient napkins?

Spotlighting the absurdity of pregnancy and shaking the sugar-coating off symptoms - get ready for the breasts of a stripper and the bladder of a Shriner - The Unexpected When You`re Expecting is a must-have for anyone with a uterus.

PRAISE FOR THE UNEXPECTED WHEN YOU`RE EXPECTING

`The advice is useful. But most of all, this book is funny.`
Austin-American Statesman

`Hilarious! A witty, laugh-out-loud take on the classic. It`s the perfect gift for every woman who has ever felt like throwing What To Expect When You`re Expecting across the room (or at her husband). I love this book - it is exactly what a parody should be.`
Risa Green, author of Notes from the Underbelly

`The Unexpected When You`re Expecting is smart, dry, and divinely anti-guidebook. Mary K. Moore`s laugh-out-loud glimpse into pregnancy is the perfect gift for your gloriously hip friends who are currently sporting glamorously elastic waistbands.`
