Poor Jamie - By: Rachael Farrell, 12 Sep 2008 
I was given this book by a friend as she told me it was fantastic, granted it did make me laugh out loud & I never actually thought I would ever feel sorry for Jamie oliver but that guy is a saint putting up with a fruit loop like his wife!
Not everyone has the money to buy doppler machines, multiple buggies & have private health care ringing your consultant every 10 seconds asking the most obvious & ridiculous questions. most of us make do with the NHS.
If anything this book made me feel more normal, buy it if you want a laugh but i would take her advice with a bag of salt rather than a pinch!
Great Book - By: Mum of 2, 11 Aug 2008 
I really loved this book. I have since bought it for all my friends that have become pregnant & they too have read it avidly. It is a heartwarming book that gives an honest description of the ups & downs of pregnancy. I would reccomend it to any pregnant woman!!!
Minus Nine to One gets ten out of ten...eventually! - By: a reader, 18 Jun 2008 
I first read this book whilstin my first trimester & absolutley hated it. I dismissed it as 'celebrity fluff' & banished it back to the bookcase. Thank you raging pregnancy hormones.
However...
I am nowin my third trimester and, after a very pleasurable re-read, I now see that this book is an absolute joy. With lots of lovely bits & bobs, from the photos to the text & the (yummy) recipes, there is a lot to keep you going. Informative, touching & very, very funny.
Ten out of ten, thanks Jools!
A very dumbed down version of what I was hoping for - By: Mrs. T. Driver, 06 May 2008 
I bought this book on the strength of the recommendations you can see here on Amazon. Warning though - I guess everyone else was looking for something a little more low brow than I was.
I was *hoping* for a book that was an emotional & real account of a woman's first pregnancy, within depth feelings & thoughts. It's actually more like a teenagers diary, & if the tone doesn't get you the ridiculous amounts of CAPITALS & !!!!'s will.
I'm sure it's a "nice" read if you're just wanting to burn a few hoursin an airport & you're not too fussed about detail, but if you're after something with a bit of substance this isn't it. Sadly, I haven't found one that is yet either! If you can recommend one please do - thayer 18 AT yahoo dot com.
Fantastic read! - By: A. Steele, 03 May 2008 
The postie delivered this at 7.30am, I then went back to bed & didn't get up until I had read the whole book cover to cover. A fantastic & inspiring read, I'm just sorry I've finished it really!
