The Mother's Companion: A Comforting Guide to the Early Years of Motherhood [Hardcover]

Rather than focusing on the needs of newborns, this lavishly illustrated book addresses the changes that mothers experience once their baby is born. At a time when most new moms are worrying about how to look after their infant, this book gently reminds them that they need to look after themselves too. It includes exercises for getting back in shape, ways of asking for help from partners and others, quick and easy recipes, and other guidance.
