Publisher Description
A much-needed voice of encouragement for every woman who had a baby and lost her mind
Sometimes, motherhood feels never-ending. A child is born, chaos ensues, and it seems like life will never return to normal.
In You Are a F*cking Awesome Mom, award-winning journalist and Instagram star Leslie Anne Bruce acknowledges that, yes, motherhood is a total mind f*ck—but then she offers the self-empowerment lessons new mothers need to get through the psychic upheaval and emerge stronger than ever. After childbirth, a woman's body, her relationships, and her very sense of self are tested like never before. Bruce encourages readers to look past the sugarcoated truisms about the miracles of child-rearing in order to embrace the real joys of motherhood, spit-up stains and all.
Loaded with unfettered support from a mom who has been through it all, You Are a F*cking Awesome Mom offers a lifeline of encouragement, inspiration, and community for the new mama who got a baby, lost her mind, and desperately wants to find herself again.
Customer Reviews
This is for the real Mom!
My little guy is 2.5 years old and my only regret is I wish I had read this book earlier!! I was totally unprepared for the emotional rollercoaster of becoming a mom. I had no idea what was coming for me! I thought all the items on my baby registry is what would prepare me for transitioning into motherhood, god was I wrong! This book is so raw and real, it’s a must for all moms!
All the Feels
This book is amazing, I wish I had it while I was pregnant! I’ll certainly be gifting it to all new parents. This book gave me all the feels and did a great job at explaining the crazy. I’ve had my husband listen and I believe this has been a great tool for him to also better understand what is going on in a new mother’s mind.
This is the best advise you’ll ever get!
This book made me laugh out loud, reduced me to tears, and was the most honest, encouraging, validating thing after pregnancy and baby! I only wish I had this book when I was pregnant! Life with a newborn would have made so much more sense! So instead I immediately bought it for my best friend who is expecting and told her “this is the best advise you’ll ever get”!!!
