Babyhood

The Story

I'm going to be totally honest. This is not the kind of book that can help you. It's not a 'how-to,' 'when-to,' a 'what-to-expect' book. It's not even endorsed by anyone remotely connected to the medical profession. (Although a cousin of mine who sells carpeting to doctors' offices not only found it 'insightful' and 'informative,' but felt that, 'if properly vacuumed, it should last a lifetime.') 'A fine endorsement,' you say. 'But if I have only one book to buy, shouldn't I go for the helpful one?' Let's compare:Those 'know-it-all' books tell you how to have a happy, healthy pregnancy.My book mentions a squirrel.Those books tell you how to care for a newborn child.My book describes how tired I am.Those books give you essential information you can use in a life-threatening emergency.My book has some very amusing anecdotes about poop. So really, it's up to you. If you want to be prepared and well-informed, I understand. But if you enjoy seeing the words 'pterodactyl' and 'uterus' in the same book, you've come to the right place.
