Before Chelsea Conaboy gave birth to her first child, she
anticipated the joy of holding her newborn son, the endless dirty
nappies and the sleepless nights. What she didn't expect was how
different she would feel. It wasn't simply the extraordinary
demands of this new role, but a shift in self - as deep as it was
disorienting. In truth, something was changing: her brain. New
parents undergo major brain changes, driven by hormones and the
deluge of stimuli a baby provides. These neurobiological changes
help all parents - birthing or otherwise - adapt in those intense
first days and prepare for a long period of learning how to meet
their child's needs. Yet this science is mostly absent from the
public conversation about parenthood. Conaboy delves into the
neuroscience to reveal unexpected upsides, generations of
scientific neglect and a powerful new narrative of parenthood.
