Just had a baby? Lie down, rest your weary womb, and muster up a rousing cheer! (Shh! Don't wake the baby!) Now, from the author of The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy, comes the book all new moms have been waiting for, whether they know it or not. Vicki Iovine talks turkey ... and stitches, and weight loss, and depression, and sex (trying it for the first time after labor and delivery? "Inebriate and Lubricate"). Vicki--yeah, I know I'm calling her by her first name but after reading this book you'll be on a first-name basis with her, too--is funny, informative, and utterly (udderly?) irreverent. New mothers have never had it so good.
From Library Journal
Iovine follows up her successful The Girlfriends' Guide to Pregnancy (Pocket, 1995) with this breezy, irreverent guide to the first year of motherhood. She covers everything from labor (when you feel "like you've swallowed a bucking bronco") to "poo-poo that smells like roses" to nursing, sleeping (or not), postpartum depression, and more. The idea here is to provide insider information (girlfriends share and share alike, right?), but the tone is more often flippant than confidential. There's not much new material that is not already found in classics like Arlene Eisenberg's What To Expect the First Year (Workman, 1988), and nervous first-timers may not respond well to Iovine's approach. Not a priority purchase.?Barbara Hoffert, "Library Journal"

Format:Taschenbuch
Even though this book is apparently targeted towards the mothers of the nation, I found it to be a good source of information. When my wife had fallen asleep and I still had some nagging worries that I didn't want to bog her down with, I often found myself perusing through Girlfriend. It answered most of my worries concisely and in laymen terms.
As with all baby books, there are some things that don't seem to match with my own thoughts, but the book is not preachy. It does not tell you how bad a parent you will be if you don't follow all of its advice, and there is plenty of room for common sense parenting.
Overall, this book is a good piece for quick, easy reference to the problems you will face the first couple of weeks to the first few months.
Format:Taschenbuch
I found this book to be enlightening, hilarious, and ultimately truthful. Vicki takes the time to tell a new mother what really to expect. While most books focus on the baby, this one focuses on the mother- much needed at such a stressful time! As a new mother myself, I appreciated her candor and humor. She is wise and witty! I will pass this one on to my new-mother friends. I intend to read the toddler book when the time comes. Readers of the L.A. Times Lifestyles section will recognize Vicki from her column. Keep it up, Girlfriend! We feel as if we are in your inner circle of girls "in the know".
Format:Hörkassette
I have read this as well as the Girlfriends guide to pregnancy. I found both of them helpful and a funny way to look at a situation that you cant change. She writes with a good sense of humor. I hope to read the rest of the series.

Thanks Again Vickie
Just as wonderful as Vickie's Pregnancy book. A must have for the first few weeks back from the hospital when you're unsure of EVERYTHING. Thanks again Vickie.

Like all the Girlfriends Guides, this is a great and original resource for new parents. Yeah, sure, it's very opinionated, but what are we reading books for except to hear someone... Lesen Sie weiter...

Loved It!
Vicki is a true girlfriend, she tells it like it is. I have all the books on how to take care of your baby, but none on taking care of yourself in this new life you are living. Lesen Sie weiter...
