While I was out off by the title a little bit, thinking that I didn’t need to read a book on marriage… I was definitely wrong about that one! She has such a gentle and welcoming voice that eases you into the difficult topics of motherhood. I really wish I listened to this in my first year of being a mother! She adds personal stories and research that all ties in to the lessons. While the lessons are not necessarily straightforward, point by point kind of lessons, they help to provide a lot of validation.
The topic that I took away from the most was actually about attachment theory. I vaguely understood it in terms of how to raise my child, but never really understood for how I act in situations myself.
There’s lots of other nuggets in this book and I honestly think that everyone can take something from it, whether they’re about to be parents, new parents, or just reflecting on the past years.

I don't think I learned much that was new, but I guess it was affirming as to why I struggle sometimes as a mom.

Some good nuggets worth chewing on. Author a bit unrelatable but still glad I read it. Biggest takeaway: the power of AND. I love my baby so much AND I can’t wait for her to sleep through the night ;-)

This book on the transition to motherhood and the feelings that mom's have while "in the weeds" as the author calls the early kid years was outstanding. I wish I had read it after first becoming a mom because so much of it had me going "yes exactly!" This book was inspiring and affirming.
I wish that I had read this before having kids. Then again, I probably wouldn't have really understood or appreciated it as much as I do now that I'm living it. A lot of points the author made left me feeling validated, and I was excited to talk to my husband and a friend about things I learned. I liked but didn't love the book because I felt like I was listening to a textbook.
