Becky Rose: Laughing Baby, Crying Mom, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Becoming a mother changed everything-but not in the ways Becky Rose expected.

In this deeply personal memoir, she reflects on the beautiful, heartbreaking, and often invisible realities of early motherhood. With unapologetic honesty and disarming humor, Becky invites readers into life shaped by postpartum depression and anxiety-the kind that hums beneath the surface while the world expects you to keep smiling, keep giving, and keep going. As she navigates sleepless nights, intrusive thoughts, crushing guilt, and moments of unexpected joy, she wrestles with the widening gap between the woman she was and the mother she believed she had to become.

More than a story about motherhood, this is a story about identity, resilience, and letting go of impossible expectations. It's about replacing the myth of the "good mom" who never struggles with something far more authentic: a woman doing her best to show up, night after night, beneath the dim glow of a red nursery light.

For anyone who has ever felt both devoted and depleted, grateful and overwhelmed, deeply in love and barely holding on, this memoir offers a reminder: you are not alone. Sometimes healing begins not when everything gets easier, but when we finally believe we don't have to carry it all alone.
