Finally, we have something to read to fill the 9 months that pass between the passionate affairs in career gal chick lit and the happy healthy babies that populate mommy lit fiction and contemporary explorations of motherhood.

Introducing pregnancy lit – books that focus primarily on the main characters experiences with pregnancy and how they prepare for the radical changes that are arriving along with their bundle of joy.

Bed Rest  by Sarah Bilston

Babyville: a novel  by Jane Green

Stork Reality by Malena Lott

Notes from the underbelly by Risa Green

These books portray a wide range of possibilities in humorous, sympathetic, confessional or dramatic stories, but impending motherhood is different for every woman. Are these books targeted just to pregnant women, or can any reader enjoy them?  Tell us what you think!
