Mumsnet: the Pregnancy Guide

68 replies

HelenMumsnet · 02/09/2009 17:25

We're tickled pink to announce the publication of our latest MN book, Mumsnet: the Pregnancy Guide.

Packed with the wit and wisdom of many a Mumsnetter, it covers every stage of the hormone-sodden path to parenthood with the kind of tell-it-like-it-is honesty you're all known for.

And it's illustrated by our very own, very talented Boco.

You can read all about it here, have a quick dekko at Justine's foreword here - and, of course, order it here.

Buy a copy! Tell your friends! And tell us what you think!

On the MN homepage there's a typo: it says 'We're tickled pick'

BarbieLovesKen · 03/09/2009 15:32

Just ordered mine... cant wait to get it!!. Am 20 weeks but will still get good time from it. Whens the baby one coming out?

TigerFeet · 03/09/2009 14:36

@Flamesparrow - these things are very important aren't they? especially when nesting

ThePhantomPlopper · 03/09/2009 13:30

Yes literally into the toilet, it's DS's toilet and he left the seat up, the toilet is directly under the window. Luckily the Amazon packaging was huge and it wedged itself into the bowl.

Flamesparrow · 03/09/2009 13:27

Tigerfeet - I was thinking about how it would look nice with the toddler one too

LadyStealthPolarBear · 03/09/2009 13:25

literally into the toilet?

ThePhantomPlopper · 03/09/2009 13:11

Mine arrived yesterday. Didn't think it came out until the 7th, but there it was posted through the window into my downstairs toilet ... cheers postie .

I've only read the first trimester section, but so far so good, not as funny as the toddler guide though, I still laugh at "fuck off ducks, fuck off".

LadyStealthPolarBear · 03/09/2009 12:11

Thanks Justine, I'll put it in the right bit!
Eyeballs, yes, there was a "Mums on pregnancy" one, which is just excerpts from threads, I assume this one will be more of a Mumsnet guide iyswim.

LuluMaman · 03/09/2009 11:55

stealth, thanks, have posted on your other thread

EyeballsintheSky · 03/09/2009 11:53

Is it completely different to the previous one? There was a previous pregnancy one, wasn't there? I'm sure it's where I first read the cursed magical word Mumsnet

Sorry that answer was meant for you LadyStealthPolarBear!

Lulu it's fine to relist - drop us a line if you need us to do anything.

JustineMumsnet · 03/09/2009 11:50

Babies out in Feb roughly - so not too long to wait!

LadyStealthPolarBear · 03/09/2009 11:42

well since you ask Lulumama
Justine - I've just noticed I advertised my sling in the For Sale - Books section, I know I'm not meant to relist within a certain time, but would it be OK if I moved it? If not I'll just post it again in a few weeks.

TigerFeet · 03/09/2009 11:38

Due in 9 days... might get it anyway, it'll look nice next to my MN Toddlers book on the bookshelf.

When's the MN Guide to Babies coming out? When my baby turns 2??

LuluMaman · 03/09/2009 11:35

what books you getting rid of Stealth?

MNHQ
JustineMumsnet · 03/09/2009 11:06

Think of it as a childbirth book LadyStealthPolarBear - nearly half of it about that .

LadyStealthPolarBear · 03/09/2009 11:01

I have a week left

MamaG · 03/09/2009 09:38
