A tad dated, especially the "fashion" chapter, but still relevant, since pregnancy and childbirth sure haven't changed in millions of years.

I like Iovine's chatty writing style and her tell-it-like-it-is way of explaining what is going on with your body during and after your pregnancy. She has four children, so she is, in my opinion, an authority on pregnancy for that alone! She makes you feel like you ARE one of her girlfriends (hence the title), and pulls no punches as she writes.
