Forget the Frump. Banish the Bulge. Wave goodbye to those leggings - there's a new breed of mothers on the baby block. Yummy Mummies don't leave their sense of style in the maternity ward - the loving hands that rock today's cradles are manicured and moisturised. Glamour has hit the buggy circuit and is here to stay.Becoming a mother, however Yummy, is still as challenging as it ever was - time is as precious as an Anya Hindmarch clutch, and energy as coveted as next season's Jimmy Choos. Have a facial? Read a book? Pop out for a drink with your friends? There's as much chance as remembering to pluck your eyebrows.RELAX: help is at hand, with this no-holds-barred, tell-it-like-it-is, roll-your-sleeves-up and dish-the-dirt guide to surviving the biggest transition of your life. Liz Fraser is a (mostly) stylish mother of three young children, and offers a much-needed, fresh look at what happens to us, our relationships and our wardrobes when we take the plunge and fill our tidy homes with nappies and Lego.Hilarious, honest and poignant, Liz uses her experiences of motherhood - including every fault, disaster and occasional triumph - to help you through pregnancy, the nasty birth bit and the first year with your baby, making the whole event seem manageable - even desirable. She shows it's not all saggy boobs and sleepless nights, and that being a gorgeous Mum needn't be the preserve of the rich and famous.Along with tons of stylish, practical advice, there are anecdotes from other new mums, fantastic survival tips from well-known Yummy Mummies such as Jemima French and Kim Wilde, and searingly frank entries from Liz's diary. Tissues at the ready, girls...This indispensable guide is the stylist, personal trainer, box of anti-depressants, bar of chocolate and best friend which every woman can carry around in her fashionable shoulder bag. Because as any savvy woman knows, becoming a mother doesn't mean you stop wanting to look and feel fabulous - it just becomes a little more difficult!
