Oh What Memories This Brings Back
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I wonder if all first babies are the same. I read this book, consisting of e-mails between two first moms, I think back to the time when my daughter was coming into this world. It was astounding to see the changes, not only physically but mentally as well as first the preparations for the new life were being made. Just like the two authors of this book. We read the books, bought a few clothes, a few diapers. Then just like in the book the baby came, and it was wonderful to see such a perfect little being. But it didn't take to discover that the baby hadn't read the book. The huge (I thought) bundle of diapers disappeared almost instantly. Oh I can identify with these ladies. And then there's the feeding problems. Trying to find what baby liked (in our case plain cows milk). These ladies did a marvelous job, the big pile of photographs we have just do not go as far as the writing in this book. Great reading.
Wow!

I thought I had read it all when it comes to being a Mommy, but this book really spoke to my heart. When you are blessed with a precious new baby, you try so hard to be perfect, and you're really wondering if you're getting anything right. Being privy to the conversations between these girlfriends reassures and empowers any new or experienced Mommy that she is raising her family in her own "right" way. At the end of the day, that can be a Mommy's saving grace! I absolutely love this book! The best part is how completely honest and funny these girls tell their story.
Hilarious!

This book cracked me up, had me in tears and made me want to be a better wife, Mom and girlfriend. The authors tackled everything! My children aren't babies anymore and I thoroughly enjoyed their banter. I looked forward to every email response. The book is witty, smart ... and so real.
Great book for realistic look at Motherhood

The Mommy Chronicles is very unique because it allows the reader access to private conversations between two real and very different moms and makes us realize everyone has the same dilemmas with motherhood. It's a down to earth book that reinforces that being a real mom is not about perfection, but a learning process and sometimes just about getting through the day. It's also a great book for any mom who has experienced postpartum depression.
