Nancy A. (Chocoholic) reviewed on 3/5/2010 + 291 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 2

A frank, no-holds-barred look at the less than pleasant side of motherhood. You know, the sort that's not advertised....the food allergies, the colic, the exploding diapers, and most of all post-partum depression and psychiatric disorders. The author relates that "sometimes it's enough that everyone is alive at the end of the day". As someone who has been there, I found myself empathizing with the author. She tackles the heavy hitting issues, but also has a sharp wit about her too, which made the book enjoyable. I would recommend this to new moms who may be having a hard time coping, or simply someone who knows a new mother.
