''Hysterical, important, moving, wonderful'' Sara PascoeI''m Jen Brister, stand-up comedian, middle-aged adolescent and, more recently, a mum. But not that mum I''m the other one. Confused? Lets back up a bit. Two years ago, my partner (a woman we''re not solicitors) gave birth to twins. Yes. Yes. Already theres a lot to take in here: gay mums, twins, solicitors (I know! Believe me, Im still reeling myself.)Like every new parent, I had absolutely no clue what I was doing. Add gay and non-biological to the mix and what do you get? Not a weird box of detergent, but a panicked beige lesbian desperately googling, Will my babies love me? at 3 a.m.This is a book for any parent who feels they dont fit the mould of a traditional 2.4 family. Stand-up comedian Jen Brister takes a very funny, very honest look at life as a parent: from IVF awfulness to crying over the pages of sleep training manuals. As the other mother she has the perfect vantage point for us to laugh and cry alongside her.
