Motherhood is a unique and personal journey, yet all mothers experience highs and lows throughout this natural and miraculous process. Some of these challenges and precious moments are humorous, while others have left scars that are still healing. This book is a collection of poems documenting from the beginning of conception to becoming a mother of two. Mothers are always searching for a community whether it be through mom groups, virtual spaces, or nearby family and friends. We are searching for support, but are often afraid to ask, or even believe that by needing it we have failed in some way. The goal of this book is for other mothers to have a safe space where they can feel they are not alone, to laugh, commiserate, or reflect on their own personal journey into motherhood.

As a teacher and mother of two who resides in Fairfield County, Connecticut, writing is my outlet for the stressors, and often humorous endeavors, working with and raising children. All of my books are written in Poetry using various poetic devices, some with rhyme and others without. It is from my grandfather, a quirky, yet genius, man that I honed in on my passion for poetry. I strive to promote deep vulnerability and honesty into my written work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honest and relatable

I really enjoyed reading this book of poems! I found them very honest and touching. I laughed out loud at times, and also felt strong emotions towards other parts. If you are a mom, you will find something you can certainly relate to, and that, I feel is very comforting. I definitely recommend this book.

These poems are honest and sometimes hilarious. So many women who have gone through the roller coaster of pregnancy and parenting will relate. Opens up so many of the topics we never talk about and all have gone through. Buy one for a friend!

Read this cover to cover in one sitting and it is 💯. I laughed and teared up and felt all the feels. It captures every bit of motherhood that I could never put into words so perfectly. It brought back memories of the early days and reminded me that every parenthood journey is so different and yet absolutely the same.

I could relate to so many of these moments. While reading it brought back so many memories of delight and frustration while going through pregnancy and the first year with my babies. I highly recommend this for parents and others planning to become parents to hear truthful stories and know they are not alone.
