The humour of the maternity of a very hilarious mother. With a  pratical common sensein life, its resumes, and I say resumes because motherhood is eternal, what you feel when you become a mother, although that feeling is undiscribable and you can feel it when you read the book. It reflects the feelings of a young mother that faces life in an optimistic way and the maternity with an incredible humour. It puts into words all the fears, joys, doubts and burdens of a mother that is always pressioned by friens or family. Family and friends, one can understand the female side, since they think because they were already mums, they know everything about it or if they haven''t had the chance yet its difficult to understand the radical change in a parent''s life. It reflects the deepest thoughts of a mother even if a mother can never put them into words because is affraid to be critisized since being a mum is "...a wonderful gift...". These are true humourous chapters in which the author opens up to you in a way that if you were not yet a mother, it helps you in your conscience to think about either having a babay or not. To those who are already mums, it helps in a day-by-day humour way to embrace matherhood, teaching at the same time how to face everyone''s "I know everything about it" criticisms, suggestions in a "diplomatic" understanding. It is composed by several chapters where family is the most critisized and there is one particular chapter, and this  the most hilarious one, specially if you are already a mother, in which the baby puts into words he''s own ideas and thoughts. Brilliant!!!!!!
