Why did we write Bleeping Motherhood’s Would You Rather: Pregnancy, Baby & Beyond?  Where did we come up with the content for this funny mom book? Let’s tell the beautiful story of Bleeping Audrey and Bleeping Kerri.

A long, long time ago (longer than either of them would care to admit), before they knew anything about kids; before they even knew anything about marriage; Audrey and Kerri met across the hallowed halls of university.

That sounds cute, right?  In truth it was a technical college where they both got BS degrees in Advertising.  You think I kid?  Nope, Bachelor of Science degrees.

Through years of client meetings, creative presentations and the seemingly inevitability of adulthood they found themselves mothers of children.  Digging deeply into their hearts to pull out the best versions of themselves.  And through this metamorphosis, they followed the words of mammary genius Dolly Parton, “Find out who you are and do it on purpose.”   That obviously created:

Bleeping Motherhood

A place to laugh, cry (either from laughter or horror) and occasionally pee oneself (damn childbirth).  A place to laugh at their own foibles and follies of parenthood.  A place to wonder how they are doing it all wrong but still ending up with great kids.  Mostly.

But that wasn’t enough.  Could it ever be?  It wasn’t enough for the now transformed Bleeping Audrey and Bleeping Kerri to flap their wings across the interwebs.  They wanted more.  More laughter.  More horror.  They couldn’t contain their questions that erupted from the terrors they experienced as parents.  The fear of losing an entire stash of breastmilk, the loads of laundry that stack up, and once folded, get destroyed by toddlers.  The remembrance of pregnancy and the constipation, the “advice” and the lamaze classes.  The delivery at a “teaching” hospital and having their genitals questioned by “well-meaning” students.

What could be worse than all that?  And why does my baby cry?

They knew they couldn’t be alone so they started writing.  And the questions piled up.  Worse than asking your father-in-law to pick up pads for post birth bleeding?  Worse than playing Marco Polo with a 3 year old? Soon the newest edition to Would You Rather books was born.  Because sometimes parenting is choosing between one evil over another.  So let’s make it a game. And a funny mom book!

There you have it, friends.  The story of us.  Go ahead and buy our funny mom book, Bleeping Motherhood’s Would You Rather: Pregnancy, Baby & Beyond!
