SynopsisPrime-time star and new mom Tia Mowry delivers a frank and hilarious modern pregnancy guide A generation of women grew up watching Tia Mowry on Sister, Sister . Like a best friend Tia always told it like it was with hilarity and compassion. Now, in a pregnancy guide like no other, she leaves no topic off-limits while helping expectant moms stay empowered, pampered, and laughing out loud. Sharing personal experience with cravings (she couldn't have done it without sourdough bread and Funyuns); maternity clothes (Tia prefers black, with sequins); vagina exercises (just say No ); and hiding your bump from your coworkers (tricky for Tia, since her character on The Game was in lingerie half the time), Tia also discusses Ask the OB Q&A's she posed to her own ob-gyn, along with dozens of tried-and-true tips for combating morning sickness, fear, and everything else that might overshadow a radiant glow., From bloating and belching to 2 a.m. pickled-garlic cravings, prime-time and reality star Tia Mowry delivers the lowdown on impending motherhood in a frank, hilarious guide to modern pregnancy. She'll tell you how to break the news (don't show up for work in a shirt that reads Knocked Up!); how to dress with finesse (even when you're the size of a small semi); and how to handle unwanted advice from friends and family (your body, your baby, your prerogative!). From sex in the third trimester to discovering the world of pimped-out strollers, Tia shares every situation that arose - expected and unexpected, plus real Q&As with her ob-gyn, and tried-and-true tips for combating morning sickness, fear, and all the rest. Tia handled her pregnancy with grace, style, and a sense of humor - and you can, too! While her experiences may not be yours (hopefully, you won't have as much gas), Tia will help you stay well informed, well dressed, and laughing all the way to Mommyhood. 'Refreshingly candid . . . Here, as in the show, Tia is the queen of Too Much Information. (Isn't that what we love about her?) . . . Your favorite mom-to-be will thank you for this one.'
