"The Realities of Motherhood" is a good primer that informs the perspective or new mother what she can expect during and after pregnancy.It starts out with a wake-up call to the short and long term economic realities of becoming a mother. The book addresses and allays many of a new mother's fears about labor, C-Sections and medical problems during delivery. The new mother is also warned about the temporary and the permanent changes to her body that she can expect, from changes in her breast and foot size, to changes in her vision acuity.The most valuable feature of "The Realities of Motherhood" may be that it reassures the mother-to-be that the strange sensations she is experiencing and will experience are normal and natural.
