Eats, Poops & Leaves: The Essential Apologies, Rationalizations, and Downright Denials Every New Parent Needs to Know and Other Fundamentals

I highly recommend this book!! It was hilarious. I actually laughed out loud while pumping. Pumping is not my favorite part of motherhood, to say the least. What a great way to get through a difficult time. It helped me to see the humor in all kinds of new mother situations.

This has got to be the all time funniest thing I have EVER read! And I'm an English/Poetry grad student, I read a LOT! Besides the humerous stuff worth its weight in gold, it doesn't have to be read straight through, you can just open it to any random page and read something - a little or a lot, it's all good!! Being a new parent is tough, and a lot of times depressing and demoralizing. This is the PERFECT pick-me-up. It's even more funny-cuz-it's-true when you have more kids! This book is highly recommended, for you or for anyone you know with babies.

hilarious book, a great break from the serious parenting books. we laugh so hard we were crying.

I just read this book at a friend's house and ordered several copies to give as gifts for new parents. I laughed to the point of crying, just the thing new parents need to lighten the load of a new baby.

I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard! Wasson's parody of parenting strikes at the truth so many times -- I saw reality written all through this satire. Plus, a thought I will often ponder: My parents could have spared me the problem of encountering multiple other Carlies in school by naming me Carlee or, for that matter, Carleeeee. I mean, seriously. Why didn't they think of it? =) Read this book, you just might laugh so hard that people will think you're sobbing.
