Sleepless nights spent with a crying baby while balancing between a mother and a mother-in-law who think they know best how to take care of your child. Between an ayah who never washes her hands and a boss irate about the lateness of an important presentation. A husband who, like you, is learning the ropes of parenting, while being silently miffed at your inattention. Sounds familiar? Naomi George has done it all—from discovering that breastfeeding does not necessarily mean maternal bliss to stalking her daughter in playschool to finding the perfect job—before she learnt to find the right balance between being a mother and being a woman. She offers tips from hard-won experience on how best to express milk, sleep-train a baby, handle sibling conflict and choose the best pre-nursery. More importantly, she tells you how to fight self-doubt and baby blues, and focus on a life other than mothering. Eat right, find time to get back your flat tummy and slim legs, take short breaks to romance with your husband: these are the things that will make you healthier and happier. A must read for every mother, who is yet to learn how to love and care for herself as she does for her little one.
