Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay: And Other Things I Had to Learn as a New Mom
I laughed so hard reading this book that tears came to my eyes and my stomach hurt the next day. Witty, irreverant and down-to-earth. Having just gotten through the first year as a new mother, and finding that raising a baby "ain't all that" at times, this book was the perfect remedy. It's great reassurance that yes, you are normal if you don't always enjoying every aspect of raising your child and no, it doesn't mean you don't love your kid or are a bad mom. I highly recommend this book, especially for moms with kids around a year, as they will inevitably relate to what the author is going through. Enjoy!!

gave as a gift and got rave reviews, even being passed on to other new moms-to-be
Sippy Cups Are Not for Chardonnay: And Other Things I Had to Learn as a New Mom
I've read this book 3 times now and laughed just as much the third time as I did the first. This book is SO refreshing and Stefanie says things that we all are thinking but just won't say. I'm a Mom and wasn't offended by ANYTHING in this book. For those 1 or 2 of you giving this book a bad review, lighten up and quit taking you and your life so seriously! Life is too short!

My son is 2 months old, and without having any major live-threatening problems, I feel like my husband and I have had every problem in "the book". Since we're the first in our group of friends to have kids, we felt very isolated going through this. Then I found this book at the bookstore, and decided to take a look, thinking it would probably be very stupid and hopefully at least mildly entertaining.When I FINALLY had a chance to read some, I laughed so hard I reread the first three chapters to my husband when he got home. The chapter on the trials of breastfeeding was, for us, so on point, and it felt so good to be able to laugh about the experience--something we hadn't been able to do before.I find Ms. Wilder-Taylor's writing a little crass and many of her references to pop culture go over my head (though I get her drift), but even so, she is a fantastic writer and I highly recommend this book!

My wife is six months pregnant so she's been poring through all the New Mommy books -- and she read me so many quotes from "Sippy Cups" that I had to read it myself. Stefanie Wilder writes with pure, unadulterated honesty which as soon-to-be-parents we really appreciate. And it's really really funny. So funny that I've been quoting it at work - and guys at the office are now buying it for their wives and friends. I highly recommend it and will be the first in line to read whatever Stefanie Wilder writes next.

Based on the input of the recipient, it was read in one sitting and laughter ensued. It looked like fun to me as I glanced through it...a fun gift -- just the title alone for the wine Aficionado...
