GREAT BOOK!!!
Any new moms who are feeling overwhelmed, and those questioning their decisions ( Back to work, bed, crib etc?) Should read this book.
I picked it up on a whim b/c I have felt the last few days or so like a bad mom. I feel like i am doing this job poorly and it guilts me, upsets me etc.
I felt vindicated in a sense and a little calmer after I read this book.
No one told me how hard it would be, and I was a wee bit shocked at all Motherhood has brought.
I wish we could all honestly talk more about it.
Hopefully this Book will help someone else...It made me feel soooooo much better.
I was a really good Mom before I had Kids
Its funny ....There's a chapter called " Am I bad mom if I dont buy Organic Spagetti O's" ....
ITs that type of humor and I think it was a great read.

I TOTALLY agree with you. And there's no shame in saying, "You know what, being a mom is amazing, but sometimes it just sucks too." 
Thanks for the recommendation! I think I'm going to pick it up.

Exactly! The quote on one page said " I love being a mommy, just hate doing it" .....
Its about getting rid of the guilt and expectations we pile on ourselves like super women ....
