"Finding a book on vegan pregnancy excited me. However, this one was a bit of a disappointment. I didn't like the tone of the book. It was misogynist (both in terms of the language it used, the way it views women's bodies and motherhood). It lacked a lot of the answers to nutritional questions I have about vegan pregnancy - it's more of an intro to veganism while you're pregnant than a book for pregnant vegans and vegetarians."
"I am so embarrassed I read this. I just needed a pregnancy nutrition book, and there were so so few at our library. But, it was amazingly well researched, an engaging read, and a compelling argument for veganism. So, if you don't mind the word bitch... go for it."
"So, I read this out of curiousity, and while some of the advice was good, I was off-put by the stanch veganism of the authors. It was very preachy and seemed to come out of left field since I had no idea this was a vegan book.
All in all though, I think when the time comes, hopefully I will remember some of the dietary tips from this book."
"While browsing the bookstore the original "Skinny Bitch" was on the display rack. It made me laugh...a lot. I noticed there was a pregnancy version so I was all to happy to get it. I think most pregnancy books are stupid and there is no reason you should be purchasing a pregnancy book when you have the internet to reference.
I knew beforehand that this book promoted a vegetarian, mostly vegan, lifestyle. Sarcasm and vegetarianism is just right up my alley. This wasn't another boring month-to-month guide about how your precious alien is growing inside of you. Most people will contest the vegetarian/vegan pregnancy out of ignorance and old fartyness (is that a word?). If the mother-to-be has a clue about how to calculate protein and other than that should be an idicator that she might know what she's doing. Mommy won't be eating junk food her whole pregnancy. If she does not this book does help.
The one thing that I didn't like about this book is the fact after fact after fact after fact format. I also wish it had a section about how to tell and educate your grandma and other skeptical people in your life about your choice to have a vegetarian pregnancy. If you tell an uneducated person about how you are not going to eat meat during your pregnancy you will get the dreaded protein lecture in hopes you will come to your senses. You maybe even get stoned or get the silent treatment.
I enjoyed this the sarcasm, raunchiness and vulgarity that this book had to offer. Thank you."
