It took about 150 pages for the titular character to be born, not because anything in particular was happening. Let’s call it rambling by Sterne.
In all that time there were next to no mentions of the mother. His birth was rather an examination of philosophy, current events and morality by the father, uncle and doctor. They were the ones that went through the labour.
Now Sterne is getting to the preface!

“if I thought you was able to form the least judgment or probable conjecture to yourself, of what was to come in the next page, - I would tear it out of my book.” - Sterne.
Well. That’s the ways it’s going to be is it? I see.

Nathan "N.R." Gaddis (chime in if you're reading buddy) has transcribed Moore's Shandian Spawn reading list which flowed from Sterne. However in that list, among all the titles provided, is "The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy" by, get this: Yakov de Saglen. Who? What? let me in on what is going on here. There is even a Goodreads entry for the Yakov de Saglen "edition" marked "to read" by 6.

Officially my 700th addition to Goodreads (assuming I don’t have accidental double posts).
