Resumen del Editor

Being a mum is an incredible journey, a remarkable experience that changes how we look, how we feel, who we are. As mothers we are strong, protective and proud. We feel a love like no other.

But being a parent can be hard, too. It challenges us physically, mentally, emotionally. There are the days where just managing to fit a shower in amidst the endless feeding, entertaining young children and surviving on a lack of sleep feels like an achievement. With so many people ready to offer 'advice' on the best way to parent, it can feel like you are getting it all wrong.

Since Giovanna and her husband, Tom Fletcher, have had their sons, Buzz and Buddy, they have been sharing glimpses of their family life. With an infectiously positive outlook and a happy take on all things mum-related, Giovanna has developed a following of fellow parents and mums-to-be.

This is not an audiobook about how to have the perfect family experience - Gi would be the first to admit she is winging it just as much as the rest of us. Instead it is an honest, upbeat and incredibly personal account of her own experience of having a family.

In Happy Mum, Happy Baby, Giovanna shares her own journey through parenthood, and in doing so she looks at what it is to be a mother today, encourages you to be confident in yourself as a parent and celebrates how putting a focus on being a happy and confident mum can really make for a happy baby.

So helpful with my first pregnancy

I am so incredibly grateful I found and listened to this book during my first pregnancy. It is so down to earth and gave me a wonderfully realistic view of pregnancy, birth, and motherhood. Hands down the best advice I got was the part about Hypnobirthing. Wow, what an amazing decision! I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants a good look at motherhood with a lot of wit and hilarity along the way.

Absolutely Amazing

I could not stop listening. Tears, laughter, and comfort, this book is absolutely amazing.

Beautiful

I love everything about this book. How raw and true it is to be a woman. Giovanna talks about her struggles with PCOS and becoming a mother. I smiled and I was brought to tears by her stories. As my husband and I have been coping with our miscarriage, trying to have a baby, and my having PCOS, it was comforting to know other people go through the same thing. I enjoyed hearing her success and about being a mother. It is beautiful.
You do not have to be a mother to read this. I think young women and mothers would get a lot from reading this book. Giovanna's voice is beautiful and it is narrated well.

Incredibly Book!

I'm not a mum or plan to be anytime soon and LOVED this.
This book is wonderfully funny and emotional.

Completely relatable!

Motherhood is such an isolating feeling sometimes. You wonder if you are the only one experiencing these challenges. Time after time Giovanna spoke of the same thoughts, feelings and experiences I have gone through since becoming a Mom. I feel like a have a new Mom friend after listening to this book!

Honest

Just an honest account of her/their lives. Such a good book for everyone.
Not just mums

Beautiful story from beginning to end!

Absolutely wonderful!! What an inspiration to current and future mum's to embrace themselves and their children and all the squishy, messy, hilarious, adorable things that motherhood brings! Thank you Gi!

Amazing!

Every young parents or parent to be should read this book. It was well stated full of humor dignity and maturity. I was amazed at how mature and realistic the author was about her life, her mother hood, and her body.

Loved

I really loved this book. To be honest, it gave me all the feels, as I too am going through this journey with a little one. There were many moments where I felt like I was not alone, and it was reassuring to know others were going through similar things. When you are in those early trenches of sleep deprivation and being a first time mum, you think you are alone. This book showed me I was not. Thank you for this touching tale of your own journeys through this process.
