About this listen

Read by the author.

The real talk you want about pregnancy, birth, body image, and the newborn days from Meghan Trainor, the chart-topping singer-songwriter behind "All About That Bass" and "Dear Future Husband," and, more importantly, Riley's mom.

Meghan Trainor has wanted to be a mom since before she even knew how babies were made. From the moment she discovered she was pregnant with her first child—her son, Riley—she was fascinated by the entire experience.

Yes, pregnancy and motherhood are miracles—but even a miracle can freak you out sometimes. Everyone has an opinion on what an expectant mother should feel, think, or do during her pregnancy, and it's hard not to feel overwhelmed with app notifications, well-meaning questions, and unsolicited advice that comes from friends, family, and perfect strangers.

Dear Future Mama is a heartfelt and humorous guide for expectant mamas inspired by Meghan's own journey into motherhood and expert insights from Meghan's own personal trainer, registered dietitian, husband, and ob-gyn. No shame, no judgment—just straight talk (and laughs) from a bestie who's been there, including

  • a TMI guide to the good, bad, and WTF of conception, pregnancy, and childbirth
  • advice about everything from ovulation apps to random hair growth
  • Meghan's personal stories about body image, mental health, and navigating her career path as a new mother
  • permission to find the right path for you—ignoring the judgment of others and freeing yourself from the shifting standards of motherhood

Dear Future Mama offers future mamas a place to relax, laugh out loud, and get the pep talk they need to know that they are absolutely not alone.

Exercises, recipes, and reference tables are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Realism

Loved it! Everything about it was relatable and it was refreshing to hear someone talk about the stuff people aren’t sure how to talk about or don’t even know to talk about it yet. She made it sound like she was your friend just telling you a story. Absolutely loved it.

Unfortunately extremely basic and Meghan speaks like she’s talking to a kindergartener class.

I really wanted to like this but it’s a painful listen and unfortunately as a pregnant woman, I just want to hear some facts and advice, not be spoken to like a child in silly voices. I found myself constantly turning it down until I couldn’t continue.
