Review Quotes




Praise for Baby Laughs

"Hilarious...a no-holds-barred look at the joys, challenges, and humiliations of the first year of motherhood."--Time Out New York

"Baby Laughs is the book that can keep an aching morass of maternal hormones company in those long hours of just watching her infant sleep, slowly letting herself be OK with every unexplained hiccup or tiny grimace, and help her laugh at the way her emotions and body also slowly retreat from the Defcon One alert level that is pregnancy."--The Washington Examiner

"[McCarthy's] honesty is disarming, funny, and so boundless that you'll feel as if you're at her side every step of the way."--The Arizona Republic
