Consider Belly Laughs, 10th anniversary edition by Jenny McCarthy.
“Jenny McCarthy’s Belly Laughs reads like an unapologetic stand-up set about pregnancy’s humiliations — gas, nausea, forgetfulness and mood swings turned into punchlines.

The main limitation is repetition and a focus on shock humor over depth, so readers seeking medical tips, sober solidarity, or quieter prose will find it thin and occasionally grating.”
