Babyville

Julia, a successful TV producer, thinks she wants a baby to fill the huge gap that has suddenly appeared in her life. Maeve, who also works in TV, is adamant that she doesn't want a baby or a relationship, but when she finds herself pregnant after a one-night stand, she finds that her preconceptions turn out to be misconceptions. And finally there's Sam; voluptuously, glowingly pregnant at the beginning of the book, but near the end screaming at her beloved partner Chris about being home with the baby all day. 2002.
