"If you are married and pregnant, do yourself a big favour and be at the nearest bookstore next Tuesday to buy the new book Babyproofing Your Marriage: How to Laugh More, Argue Less and Communicate Better as Your Family Grows ... The 289-page book will give you an honest look at how your marriage will forever change once baby makes three. It's all the stuff your married girlfriends with children won't admit."

"As I was reading through Babyproofing Your Marriage I laughed out loud so many times and I kept saying to myself and to my husband, "This is us! They are talking about us! You have to read it to understand. It was nice to know the way I felt was completely normal ... This enthralling book could not have come at a better time."

"There is so much I want to say about this book, I am so excited about it. Every time I read a line ... I want to read it out loud to someone... It's just so brilliantly obvious. It is a MUST for every couple with a new baby. The book has practical tips, funny anecdotes, personal stories and lots of easy-to-adopt advice. But for me, the best part of the book was the realization that it is not just me. That these Very Occasional murderous feelings I have towards my partner are all part of the process of adapting to parenthood."

"While I think the sex chapter alone is worth the price of this book, there is much more here. The authors did their research, drew their conclusions and assembled tons of concrete steps husbands and wives can take to bridge the great mom/dad divide. With lots of funny cartoons and a glossary full of hilarious, spot-on phrases to describe the mind boggling effects kids have on a married couple, the book manages to reach brand-new parents of one as well as "veterans" with three kids or more, women as well as men."

Finally, an Owner's Manual: a down-to-earth, honest, realistic guidebook for this tricky business of marriage and parenting! ... Even if you've "been there, done that," BABYPROOFING is a wonderful gift for friends and family just embarking on the journey. It should be required reading, with so much valuable, potentially marriage-saving information and humor.
