I am not sure how hugs for a new mom would include providing her with several sad tales of motherhood and some awkwardly paraphrased scriptures.

This book really is like a warm hug. I was gifted this book when I was going through the trenches of post partum depression, and it was so refreshing and gave me such immense comfort. It’s nice to know you’re not alone and to realize that normal is not what is depicted in the worldly view, but what is in real life. Embracing it and honoring these sweet and sometimes difficult days. Definitely recommend to all moms, and a wonderful gift idea!

This book is great for brand-new first-time moms or expectant mothers. It’s short and sweet, but it includes some anecdotes of different types of pregnancies, labor, and deliveries.

I received this book as a new mom, and my baby is now three years old, and I just now found the time to read it. The stories are a little corny, but it means well. It may encourage someone else, and the scriptures are right on time. I'd definitely recommend this as a gift to a new mom. It's a very quick read; I read it in 30 minutes.
