"Knocked Up Abroad Again is a terrific collection of honest stories that show us that motherhood knows no borders." - Jenn Mann, New York Times bestselling author of People I Want to Punch in the Throat
"Funny, moving, and insightful—a wild ride of motherhood around the world."
"The engaging, well-written essays collected here are valuable not only for their insights into other cultures, but also for the support they offer to women dealing with pregnancy and early motherhood in countries foreign to them. This is exactly the book I was looking for when I myself was knocked up abroad."
"And the other essays do too... we learn about rituals of pregnancy, practices of birthing, customs regarding family, in many more countries, all told by women who live there, or lived there at the time they are describing. All of the essays are beautifully told, moving, amusing, lovely reading."
"This is a collection of stories and most of them were something that you want to read repeatedly."
"Whether living abroad or at home, this book will give any parent the inspiration they need to persevere through the toughest of parenting and pregnancy situations. Highly recommended!"
