    <body><![CDATA[This book has been around for a while and since I always thought that Jenny McCarthy was a complete idiot, I never felt the urge to pick it up.<br/>After having been through 4 pregnancies and having 3 kids, since I was going through this again for a 5th time I needed some light reading that did not...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/52170315">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[(I rate books based on their potential.  So while it might not be as good as other books on my list that I gave 4 stars to, I'm not sure why anyone would place that expectation on it.)  For being a 1-day read by an MTV celebrity, it definitely earns 4 stars.  I recommend reading it around the 6 or 7...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/56494807">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A really funny book!  Though I'm not pregnant yet and don't plan to be for at least a year or two, I heard that this book came highly recommended, and I figured now was as good a time as any to prepare myself for the &quot;joys&quot; of pregnancy - the stuff they really don't want to tell you!

It was funnier than I expected.  It was also refreshingl...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/48593168">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Heinous. I wish I could give this less than one star, because it was a waste of trees and time. I don't understand why people thought this was funny. Sure, she talks about some of the embarrassing parts of pregnancy, but her humor is immature and crude and it didn't make me feel one bit better about...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39422292">more...</a>]]></body>
