Yes, our very latest publishing progeny is in all good bookshops (online and offline).

Babies: The Mumsnet Guide is packed to bursting with your advice on the whole kit and caboodle of babydom (breastfeeding, colic, sleep, food, health, relationships, childcare and lots more) plus some brilliant puns.

If you've already read it, reviewed it or recommended it, thank you! Please tell us what you think here.

If you haven't, order your copy and read Justine's foreword for a taster.

Thank you.

And please spread the word at your antenatal class, buy it as a present for your mates and generally help to get some magnificent Mumsnet advice out there!

I've skimmed it late at night when a bit drunk

It is full of quotes, I reckon practically everyone is in there

Some funny bits of conversation too from the boards

bronze · 04/03/2010 17:26

fillybuster · 04/03/2010 19:30

Why no launch party? The last one was fun And I got to meet MP and Justine and other such important people...can we have another one? Pretty please? I promise I'll behave...

mustrunmore · 04/03/2010 19:35

I'd buy it if I was quoted in it, but somehow I doubt I am!

morningpaper · 04/03/2010 19:35

I think there was only one for the first book because it launched the series

although there might have been others that they haven't invited me to

maybe ask sophable, she is always being invited to stuff

blouseenthusiast · 04/03/2010 19:44

I think there were sposed to be more parties then some folk at teh first one drank all the budget.

GF is mentioned in foreword hahaha thats made my day

ShowOfHands · 04/03/2010 21:14

I'm poor and don't have a baby.

If I'm in it, I'll consider nicking it from Waterstones. Or maybe Smiths, their security is lax.

Bet I'm not. Only thing I've ever said about babies is 'aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrgggghhhhh' and 'what the buggery feck do you expect me to do with this?'

Flame · 04/03/2010 21:26

(SoH - my quote appears to be about shredding DH's testicles if he mentions fanjos not being perfect after childbirth... I don't think baby knowledge is essential )

ShowOfHands · 04/03/2010 21:50

Oh huzzah, then there's hope for me yet. Now, what have I said about dh's testicles recently?

blouseenthusiast · 04/03/2010 21:51

aaah, it's got to 1000, do some frenzied buying and can get to three figures! I think you are in there,SoH, looking now....

morningpaper · 04/03/2010 22:04

play the "I can tell you if you are in it!" game - it only involves you searching your hard drive which is nice and easy

SoupDragon · 04/03/2010 22:10

[hopeful] I must have said something useful in the last 8 years.
