Synopsis
Make way for the Yummy Mummies. They’ve got top-of-the-line strollers and they push them with perfectly manicured hands. Their babies sleep peacefully while they indulge in elegant lunches with other yummy mummies, and they have close personal relationships with their trainers. Weeks after giving birth, they have the flat stomachs of 18 year olds, and whatever fine lines might reveal a higher age bracket get fixed…pronto, if pricily. Yummy Mummy is a funny and poignant true-to-life novel about Amy Crane, bored and overweight new mother who doesn’t seem to be acing the motherhood test. Six months after giving birth she doesn’t feel any more like herself than she did when she came home from the hospital. Amy loves her baby, but she’s not so sure how she feels about her baby’s father. She even suspects him of having an affair. When Amy spies a perfectly groomed mother—in every way Amy’s polar opposite in perfection--Amy gets her first glimpse of a Yummy Mummy. Inspired, she enlists the help of a new friend, well acquainted with the ways of yummy mummies, to help her graduate from breast pads to Botox. As she shapes up her exterior, Amy finds her sexual impulses awakening from a long nap, which plunges her relationship into further crisis. Forced to look inside—beyond the caesarian scar and the cellulite—Amy must make a decision once and for all what is most precious to her, and figure out how to rescue it before it’s too late.
