You remember Jenny McCarthy: actress, television star, typical blonde bombshell. But it was more than just good looks that made the former Playboy centerfold memorable.

McCarthy established herself in the entertainment industry as a pretty girl with a nasty mouth, and aside from becoming a mom, not much about her has changed since she came on the scene. After giving birth to her first child in 2002, McCarthy thought she’d share the not-so-pretty details of her pregnancy with readers in a book called “Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth About Pregnancy and Childbirth.”

At the outset, she writes, "If you bought this book, you are already aware of my frankness when it comes to certain things – anatomy and bodily functions among them.” She goes on to share the details of her bouts of morning sickness, hormonal rage, gas, hemorrhoids, weight gain, hot flashes, fainting spells and more.

Throughout “Belly Laughs,” McCarthy is undeniably crass but funny, self-deprecating but honest, repulsive but reassuring, all at the same time. In the end, a refreshing read that promises a good laugh for any mommy-to-be.
