Typically, "new mom" guides address the biggest challenges from those first few years of motherhood: breastfeeding, bonding, sleep, and getting back in shape. But nowhere is a guide that tells you What to say when someone asks if i' m pregnant and I had the baby last year. That' s where Romper advice columnist and award-winning writer Jenny Pritchett comes in: You Look Tired is a smart, inclusive, tell-it-like-it-is guide for new moms with diverse experiences, backgrounds, and resources. Writing as Jenny True in her "Excruciatingly Personal Mommy Blog," she has provided what her readers crave: the relief and laughter that come with validation and, most importantly, connection. Her columns are a mix of humor, rage, disbelief, and encouragement (with a smidgeon of practical advice) and her thousands of fans have called her a "postpartum feelings doula. " Here she covers such burning topics as:* The Fourth Trimester: And other euphemisms you will come to hate. * Maternity Leave: Fantasy vs. reality* Who Am I Anymore: Having Kids Puts Your Identity in the Juicer* An Open Letter to People who Say, "Looks like you have your hands full!" And much more!
"A must-have for moms-to-be. " --Bunmi Laditan, author of The Honest Toddler: A Child' s Guide to Parenting "Completely hilarious, utterly frank, thoughtful, and wise--this book is a breath of fresh air. " --Meaghan O' Connell, author of And Now We Have Everything: On Motherhood Before I Was Ready "What a relief this book is. "--Jancee Dunn, author of How Not to Hate Your Husband after Kids In You Look Tired, Jenny Pritchett dishes out hilarious, in-your-face advice to overwhelmed moms and moms-to-be. If you don' t have a trust fund, a live-in nanny, or the organizational skills to breastfeed elegantly while getting a pedicure, you need this book. In the voice of her popular alter ego Jenny True, Pritchett tells it like it really is, not the way it would be if you were floating through parenthood on a cloud of maternal fairy dust. There is no maternal fairly dust, people! Fortunately, there is Jenny True. --Michelle Richmond, New York Times bestselling author of five novels and two award winning story collections, mother of one, and Jenny True fan.
