    About this ebook

    Are you a new parent with a few worries and questions that could fit on a laundry list as long as I40? Or perhaps you just want to get to know a little more about these first steps you are taking or are about to take on your journey into parenthood? If so "First-Time Mom Handbook: All the Steps from Being Pregnant, Getting Ready and Embracing Motherhood " has something to offer you.

    Forget those books that make the first months of parenthood seem like unicorns and rainbows, this book takes a realistic but fun view on the things that are to come. Covering the topics that you really want to know about like what happens when you aren't bonding with your baby? Or what happens when you are just tired of being tired? This book isn't afraid to answer the questions that the other books tend to leave unanswered.

    It's not all secret questions asked in hushed voices though, this book also covers the joys of caring for a baby when you have vaginal pain after a traditional birth - did you really think you'd need a hushed voice for that one after giving birth?

    If you're looking for a fun but informative book that offers you more than the average slew of topics, this book is the right pick for you.

    Inside You Will Learn:

    • What happens to your baby after they are born.
    • What to do when you aren't feeling a bond with your baby.
    • Tackling life with a baby that doesn't sleep.
    • When to call the doctor and when to treat at home.
    • And Much More

    Once you begin reading this book you may just find that you're not the only parent in the world with scary questions about being a parent for the first time.
