As someone who doesn't read nonfiction, I couldn't put this down. It just felt like a conversation between friends. It was real. Honest. Straight forward. Insightful. Helpful. Encouraging. Most importantly, a judgement free zone. ❤️

As a new mom the whole book just felt relevant. Regardless of what trimester (postpartum) you’re in, each chapter, and section, is relatable and useful. There's a lot of good advice, helpful selfcare tools, and even product recommendations that could be really beneficial to new moms. Yasmin talks about sleep deprivation, what happens to your body, moods, relationships, the dreaded WTF moments, and more through each postpartum trimester.

At the end of the day, we're all doing our best to figure out motherhood...in our own unique way. And this book really made that feel okay. Encouraged it even.

"And do this mom thing your way because that’s the only way." 👏

A couple quotes that really resonated with me...

"Sometimes just knowing someone else out there has gone through what you’re going through in this new-momma adventure can really help to make it feel more manageable and to give you hope."

"Remember, you are doing your best. Some days your best is crap, and that’s really okay. Stop comparing yourself to other moms online. You are finding your own way as a mom."
