"Adult Diapers, lack of sleep and strategizing communication with your partner - just a few MAJOR tips that every first-time mom should know. I've had three beautiful babies and I should have read this before each one, even if just as a refresher!" - April Melton - Mother, Managing Partner, Co-Founder of the Big Girl Pants Podcast "I really appreciated two important subjects highlighted in this book: encouragement of open communication between the mama and herself, partner, and support system and the importance and value of a strong support system. Both of those things are vital for mama to be, partner, and family as a whole. No one person, book or class can prepare expecting moms fully for this amazing, transformational milestone in their lives, but books like Postpartum provide valuable perspective and knowledge to prepare new moms better physically, mentally, and emotionally."
