A modern mothering handbook – with none of the answers and all of
the encouragement. Everyone tells you that having children is
life-changing (and we're not just talking about your new habit of
binge-watching Bluey episodes), but you don't really believe them
until you're there in the trenches, dealing with yet another
toddler tantrum in the middle of the street, after realising you
forgot to buy milk, all on four hours of (broken) sleep. Parenting
is one of the hardest jobs in the world, and yet everyone assumes
you should be enjoying it twenty-four hours a day, seven days a
week, which is funny because that pretty much describes your
working hours. Oh, and did we mention that there are no toilet
breaks, or holidays, or dare we say it... wages? This book will be
a handy companion as you deal with the ups and downs of motherhood.
From making your way through those first few months of the newborn
haze right through to sending them off into the world as (almost)
proper adults, it contains a treasure trove of advice and words of
wisdom from parents who have done it and got the (vomit-covered)
T-shirt to prove it. While motherhood is undoubtedly special, it's
not without it's challenges... and anyone who says otherwise is
either a saint or has a really good nanny. "Being a mom has made me
so tired. And so happy." Tina Fey "There's no way to be a perfect
mother and a million ways to be a good one." Jill Churchill
