Laughter and Tears: The Emotional Life of New Mothers

Rating:
Summary: Excellent! A must for all first-time mothers!
Review: This book tells in realistic and compassionate detail (from a credible medical and psychological expert) what new mothers are sometimes embarassed or ashamed to admit was their experience. It celebrates the highs of motherhood and reminds the new mother of everything she has truly acomplished. Even if you are not having any ambivalence or stress from becoming a new mother, this book gives a wonderful and understanding portrait of what these early weeks and months are like.
