"But no one told me to expect this..."

So many new moms find themselves saying this phrase in the first hours, days, and weeks postpartum--sometimes even for years! That's where Instagram's wildly popular @mamapsychologists come in. In Not Your Mother's Postpartum Book, Chelsea and Caitlin share what to really expect postpartum--and it's not just the baby blues.

This refreshingly candid resource fills a notable void by providing real, honest, and raw insights into motherhood. With their nonjudgmental yet humorous tone, Caitlin and Chelsea provide a deep dive into all things #momlife, including:

• Birth trauma & perinatal mood disorders
• Baby feeding & sleep
• The mental load of motherhood
• Body image struggles
• Mom guilt & burnout
• NICU life
• Intimacy & romance postpartum
• Pregnancy complications & loss
• The balancing act of returning to work
• And more...

Mom life feels hard because it is hard. There is hope, and this book is here to provide it.
