Birthdaze: Stories for Moms Deborah A. Ein

Attention all mothers and mothers-to-be! The truth is here! Real stories from real moms, about the real pregnancy and childbirth experience. In a collection of memoirs, collaborators Deborah A. Ein and Rochelle A. Salmon bring together the oral histories and cumulative wisdom that has been quietly passed from woman to woman, mother to daughter, generation to generation. Honest, exciting, frightening and humorous, these essays bring pregnancy and childbirth out of the dark, scientific, how-to textbooks and illuminate the journey into motherhood with warmth, intimacy and camaraderie. Men have their war stories and these are our stories from the trenches of womanhood.
