About this listen

First comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes...a baby carriage? Isn’t that what all women want? Not so for Claudia Parr. And just as she gives up on finding a man who feels the same way, she meets warm, wonderful Ben. Things seem too good to be true when they fall in love and agree to buck tradition with a satisfying, child-free marriage. Then the unexpected occurs: one of them has a change of heart. One of them wants children after all.

This is the witty, heartfelt story about what happens to the perfect couple when they suddenly want different things. It’s about feeling that your life is set and then realizing that nothing is as you thought it was—and that there is no possible compromise. It’s about deciding what is most important in life, and taking chances to get it. But most of all, it’s about the things we will do—and won’t do—for love.

Brilliantly written.

I really enjoyed Baby Proof. Fun and exciting, easy read/listen with a lovely ending. The characters are all so loveable and i could relate to them all in one way or another, especially the main character Claudia.
I can't wait to listen to more books by Emily Giffin.

Deply Disappointed

I absolutely love this author and have read nearly all her books. That being said, I felt this particular story didn't pay respect to women who choose not to have a family. It was predictable (in a bad way) and normalized the unicorn idea that women who don't want babies will eventually "change their minds". Not the story I thought it would be. That's on me. Nevertheless, I was left quite disappointed by the whole thing. I do not recommend this book if you are someone who is looking for a story of someone who doesn't need a child to fill their life with purpose.
