Tracy Moore writes for Jezebel’s wildly popular<br />
weekly column, Motherload, a humorous, often<br />
exasperated look at the conventional expectations<br />
and frustrations of modern motherhood. She has<br />
also written for Village Voice papers, LA Weekly, Dallas<br />
Observer, Nashville Scene, Houston Press, Rolling Stone<br />
magazine, and Spin magazine. She and her husband<br />
spend all the rest of their extremely limited<br />
free time wrangling a toddler who insists on drinking<br />
her own bathwater.<br />
• From the wildly popular Jezebel blogger, Tracy Moore, comes a<br />
hilarious yet useful guide to the unplanned pregnancy<br />
• Her regular columns on Jezebel.com garner 30,000 to 90,000<br />
views per post!<br />
• Approximately 49 percent of pregnancies are unplanned and more<br />
than half of those involve women in their 20s and 30s (Centers for Disease<br />
Control and Prevention)<br />
Talk about a bump in the road. Whether they were waiting until “the right<br />
time” to have kids or hoped and pleaded the day would come, readers<br />
who are expecting (when they TOTALLY weren’t expecting) will breathe a<br />
sigh of relief when they flip through Oops! In this collection of humorous<br />
essays, Jezebel blogger Tracy Moore shares her personal experiences with<br />
jumping head first into motherhood—without a clue what she was doing.<br />
Unexpectedly pregnant at thirty-three, Moore’s life completely changed<br />
when she had to give up her beloved cigarettes and deli meats and quickly<br />
learn how to care for the little bundle of (ahem) joy growing inside of her.<br />
Her honest advice will help others facing a surprise pregnancy cope with<br />
all the changes and feelings that occur the moment they become a parent.<br />
From stockpiling baby supplies in just a few months to being the lone sober<br />
one at a party, this book will reassure mothers-to-be as it answers all their<br />
questions and braces them for the unexpected.<br />
