Practical, upbeat, humorous?yet realistic?help for new mothers
Elizabeth Wright became aware of the need for this book shortly after giving birth to her first child. Faced with the reality of having a baby in her home, she started frantically reading through the standard works on childraising. She was surprised to learn that while these books provide a wealth of information on a baby's development and growth, they do precious little to help the new mother cope with her new life. ?Obviously,? she writes, ?the people who wrote these books had never been in the trenches?at home taking care of Baby. I needed to know what to do when my baby curled up like a pillbug in her car seat and screamed herself maroon. I needed a book written by a mother who had not yet achieved complete amnesia about childbirth and the first year of motherhood.?
The New Mother's Survival Guide will be a beacon and a friend for all new mothers who are looking for valuable information based on real-life experience.
