Baby Laughs: The Naked Truth About the First Year of Mommyhood


Congratulations, you’re a new mommy!

You’ve brought your brand-new bundle of joy home, and there’s so much to look forward to: photos; baby’s first word; clipping those oh-so-cute and very tiny fingernails; finding just the right stroller; sex again (gulp!); and, oh yes, losing the weight. The joys of being a new mommy or daddy are endless, but so are the worries and the advice. Jenny McCarthy, the New York Times bestselling author of Belly La… More >>

  1. She circumsised her son because she wanted his penis to ‘look pretty’ (her words) That is not funny. It’s sick mutilation.

    I can’t believe the above person who thinks that infant male mutilation is beneficial or has long term health benefits. Clearly you are living in the dark ages.

    Jenny McCarthy makes it clear that she didn’t bother to inform herself at all on issues important to being a parent. She made a decision to circumcise her child without being informed in the slightest about the harm and diminishment that it would mean to him. Do your child a favor and pass on this one.

  3. Seems as though Jenny’s silicone breats have leaked..into her brain.

    Written in her vapid, obnoxious tone…this book made me want to claw my eyes out.

    D-list book from a D-list celeb.

  4. This was infinitely worse than her first pregnancy book, and that was no winner, either. Even my cousin, her one-time Number One Fan, who enjoyed Belly Laughs, commented on the base nature of this train wreck. It took me an hour to read this over at my aforementined cousin’s house and the last forty-five minutes of the effort were an exercise in sheer disbelief that this was someone’s MOM talking about her own flesh and blood like he was a prop in a gross comedy skit. Why on earth does this former Playmate airhead think it’s funny to tell such mean-spirited things about her child? This book is going to haunt the poor kid and humiliate him someday when he gets to school. Making light of her own flaws and mishaps is one thing and was marginally humorous in Belly Laughs, and Jen X, but here it comes off as too much information about someone else who cannot speak for himself or request some tact. I hear she’s getting divorced. Good. Maybe the father will get custody and spare the boy a mom like Jenny. Mark my words, this kid is going to hate his mother someday. I wish I could rate a book as zero stars. Let’s pretend I did.

    Yes, I’m a young, hot mama. Yes, I loved Belly and Baby Laughs. No, I’m not a huge Jenny fan. I thought she was kinda cute in Singled Out but I never foamed at the mouth to join her fan club. But for all of you who bitch about what a terrible author/mother/person she is – you’re just JEALOUS!!!

    You’re envious because YOU didn’t snap back into a size 6 (or let’s face it a size 16) right after birth. When was the last time your husband looked at you the way he (secretly) looks at Jenny? You’re jealous because you were never in Playboy, I’m sure.

    You all are just hating. Too bad you can’t be beautiful, a great mom, have a hot husband AND have two book deals.

    I’m 5′2 and weigh 140 pounds. Not the best body in the world after 2 kids but I still have the attitude that I’m sexy and hot. My husband loves it. I don’t criticize other mothers to feel better about myself like you all do and that sets me apart from all the other insecure, chubby moms.

    One day you will figure it out – but of course you’ll never admit it to anyone else.

    In the meantime – Jenny, you’re awesome. Good for you babe!
