Editorial Review
Oh, the joys of pregnancy! There's the gasiness, constipation, queasiness, and exhaustion; the forgetfulness, crankiness, and the constant worry. Of course, no woman is spared these discomforts and humiliations, but most are too polite to complain or too embarrassed to talk about them. Not Jenny McCarthy!In Belly Laughs, the actress and new mother reveals the naked truth about the tremendous mood swings, the excruciating pains, and the unseemly disfigurement that go along with pregnancy. Never shy, frequently crude, and always laugh-out-loud funny, McCarthy covers it all in the grittiest of girlfriend detail. With tips and hilarious musings on morning sickness and hormonal rage, hemorrhoids, pregnant sex, and the torture and sweet relief that is delivery, Belly Laughs is must-read comic relief for anyone who is pregnant, who has ever been pregnant, is trying to get pregnant or indeed, has ever been born!

Love this book 
2008-09-29
This is also very true, yet very funny. I loved reading this. So much of this book is right on the dot during pregnancy. It is so neat to read that someone else went thru what we go thru during pregnancy. The only difference is most people won't talk about it, yet she does and puts a funny spin on things!
A lot of laughs, but not overly informative

It was good to read once, and it was a quick read, but it wasn't one of those books you want to hold onto and refer back to. Borrow it from the library, that's where my copy went.
Hilarious---but helpful too! 2008-09-21
I do not have any children, but am planning on starting a family soon. This book was great at answering some of my most "embaressing" questions in a funny way! My husband even read some of the book and laughed! For someone with a good sense of humor, this would be a great buy!
LOL all through the book 2008-09-16
All I can say is that this book is hilarious. I read this during my pregnancy,right before I would fall asleep.My husband would fall asleep first,until I came across one of the many LOL moments in the book,and then I would be laughing so hard that I would wake him up.Everything she talked about in the book was either true to my pregnancy or true to someone I knew.And that added to the hilarity.I recommend the book,then I recommend her second, Baby Laughs.Then I recommend that you share it with all your girl friends,mommies or not!!
Too funny! Perfectly compliments all of the medical books you'll read! 2008-09-12
Love this book...she is very candid and gives it to you straight. Definitely made my symptoms seem like a piece of cake compared to her...enjoyed every word!
Don't pass this one up!!!!! 2008-09-05

It was pretty good 2008-08-31
I took this book to read on vacation and finished it in a few hours. It's a very easy read. Mildly entertaining. I didn't laugh as much as I thought I would. My pregnancy was the complete opposite of hers, maybe that's why.
I absolutely love this book! 2008-08-28
When I was pregnant with my daughter, Jenny McCarthy made me feel SO much better. And, I loved that the chapters were so short because I had no attention span. I highly recommend this for any woman who's expecting.....
Belly Laughs 
2008-08-27
Hilarious book. Jenny McCarthy lets all all the gross yet humourous details of how she felt while she was pregnant - no holding back. I would definately reccommend this book - also it is easy reading.
Bad Experience 
2008-08-24
I thought this book didn't have any amusement what so ever. If anything this would make a person very nervous about the whole miracle of life. She had a bad pregnancy accompanied by a hard birth. I would not read any of her other books as it would make me want to crawl under a rock and cry for what will life with a child bring next. Maybe being with Jim Carey has helped her in her life since her husband didn't seem to be much of a man but more of thorn in her side on top of all her pains an mood swings.
