Product details
Enter motherhood on the front foot!
Learn everything 1000 mothers know.
I Wish Someone Had Told Me... reveals the 195 unspoken truths about labour, childbirth and early motherhood, that 1000 mothers wish they knew before having their baby.
When a baby is born, a mother is born!
However, the mother is often completely overlooked in the whole birthing and postpartum process.
Newsflash! A woman is transformed when she becomes a mother. This is known as matrescence.
Imagine if you knew all the things that can, and do, happen to women during labour, childbirth and early matrescence...
How prepared and empowered would you feel?
I Wish Someone Had Told Me... does just that. It prepares and empowers you so you can enter motherhood on the front foot!
This book shares 195 unspoken truths about what happens to YOU (not your baby!) during labour, childbirth and early motherhood. Information 1000 mothers, from around the world, want you to have before you give birth.
Because some things in labour, childbirth and early motherhood are just too gross, embarrassing or personal to share, many mums don't find out the truth until they go through it themselves.
UNTIL NOW
I Wish Someone Had Told Me... is the best baby shower gift. It is the baby book you must read. Packed with 195 honest, medically- and factually-correct, unspoken truths, it openly shares all the things nobody likes to talk about, but every expectant mum must know so you can enter motherhood on the front foot.
Dr Jennifer Hacker Pearson is mum of 3 who holds a PhD in Medicine and a degree in Psychotherapy. She researched and collated the experiences in this book as a mother for mothers, because she wants you to be informed and empowered so your transition into motherhood is the best it can be.
EMPOWER YOURSELF WITH THIS KNOWLEDGE AND BE FULLY PREPARED!
