I loved this book! I am one of those rare moms who had an easy, quick birth, a mellow child who slept like a dream, never sick, no allergies, etc., etc. Even so, there were plenty of descriptions of Marrit's experience with her child that had me doubled over laughing in commiseration. It also helped me empathize with my friends who had a harder time with their births and children. Because that's what it's all about, supporting each other as mommas and not letting society's unrealistic expectations get us down! We're not perfect, and we need to help each other; Marrit hit the nail on the head.
