  There comes a time in every new mother's life when she realizes that all the pregnancy well-wishes and baby shower gifts left her profoundly unqualified for the realities of life with a newborn. Who knew there would be so much crying—and how much of that crying would be coming from the mom?Bestselling author Dawn Dais believes that a vast conspiracy exists to hide the truth about parenting from expectant mothers for fear that if the truth got out, women would (1) stop having babies or (2) stop bringing them home. Eschewing the adorableness that oozes out of other parenting books, Dais offers real advice from real moms—along with hilarious anecdotes, tips, and the encouragement every new mom needs to survive the first year of parenthood.Revised and updated with new chapters offering advice for single moms and tips for partners, The Sh!t No One Tells You is a must-have companion for every new mother's sleepless nights and poop-filled days.

This fascinating collection of medically related items will give you a perspective on medicine and health care not available from other books. After much dipping in and out, or from referring to the topic-based index, you will know what 100% proof really means for an alcohoic drink and how you are likely to feel if you drink Ayahuasca. You will also know when two doctors in Casualty earnestly discuss your 'UBI' they have smelt your breath and are talking about your 'unexplained beer injury'.
