They should send this book and Elisa Albert’s After Birth home along with every baby from the hospital.

‘Motherhood leaves you inevitably and profoundly changed; you can be similar to who you were—maybe?—but you'll never be the same.'

Some funny and heartfelt moments. I could really relate to the Halloween costume essay. It all felt super unrelatable, though, when there were day nannies and night nurses swooping in at every tough moment.
