The first volume in a practical, honest series for new mothers.
When the hospital sends you home, no one explains what you're actually supposed to do for the next two weeks. 101 Tips for New Mothers, Volume 1 is the practical, substantive companion that fills in what the books and classes leave out. This first volume covers the earliest stretch of motherhood: from late pregnancy preparation through the first weeks home with the baby. Across 28 chapters in three sections, it answers the questions new mothers actually have:
I bought five copies after reading my own. The new mothers in my life don't need another onesie; they need this book. Practical, warm, and honest.
ARC Review Saved my first year.
I read three or four chapters every night during the first weeks. The book made the hardest period of my life more navigable. I've already given copies to two friends.
ARC Review Real information for real mothers.
No fluff. No condescension. No empty reassurance. Just honest, substantive guidance for the first year of motherhood. The book I wish I'd had with my first child.
ARC Review Read this before the baby comes.
I read it during my third trimester and felt prepared in ways I wouldn't have otherwise. The chapters on what to expect at the hospital, in the first weeks, and through the early months were invaluable. Worth every cent.
ARC Review
- Preparing for Arrival - what to pack at thirty-six weeks, what to stock in the freezer, how to choose a pediatrician, what to set up before the baby arrives
- Hospital and First Hours - what to ask for, what to refuse, what to learn before discharge, why to request the lactation consultant on day one
- First Weeks Home - how to lower the bar to keeping yourself and the baby alive, how to curate visitors, why not to Google symptoms at three in the morning
