After Kate Figes had her first baby, she was unprepared for the physical, sensory, emotional, and psychological upheaval. She imagined that she would carry on working, thinking, feeling, and socializing as usual and felt inadequate as a mother and as a woman when she didnt. Life After Birth is the first thoroughly honest book to examine the transition into motherhood. Using interviews, medical and anthropological research, and her own experience, Figes tackles problems facing new moms such as:Experiencing anger and hostility toward the child after expecting to feel unconditional love How the attitudes of friendsboth childless and with childrenchange toward the mother of a new baby Feeling bone-tired and unsexual even after the infant sleeps through the night.Life After Birth illuminates these realities so that new mothers will feel reassured, less alone, and ready to enjoy motherhood. 716370 2000 Life After Birth: What Even Your Friends Won't Tell
