Book Reviews of Baby on Board: Becoming a Mother without Losing Yourself-A Guide for Moms-to-Be

Book Review: A must read!
Summary: 5 Stars

I found this book to be very useful and was able to work through all of Amy and Joelle's suggestions about how to prepare for arrival of a baby. I actually read it after I had my 2nd child and wished it had been around when I was pregnant the first time! There is so much a mother/wife/friend/sister/daughter has to prepare for when a new life is brought forward, but so little guidance about how to prepare. This book helps you to start thinking about YOUR new life as a mother and all the other roles you fufill. I think it is a MUST read if you want to give yourself a smooth start.

Summary of Baby on Board: Becoming a Mother without Losing Yourself-A Guide for Moms-to-Be

Most mothers-to-be are so busy preparing for their babies that they fail to focus on themselves. But during this incredible, thrilling, life-changing time, it is more important than ever that they take the time to reflect. What kind of mother do they want to be? Will they fashion themselves after their own moms, or do they picture their lives differently? Filled with practical advice and heartfelt wisdom, as well as anecdotes and hands-on exercises, Baby on Board is an encouraging and inspiring guide that helps readers figure out what motherhood means to them personally, while ensuring that they don't lose their sense of self as they become parents.

Based on the authors' successful life-coaching of women across the country, Baby on Board helps readers discover what will bring them balance and fulfillment as new mothers as they juggle career, family demands, social expectations, and their own needs and dreams. This unique book supports, encourages, and celebrates each woman's unique path to motherhood, giving each just the right amount of direction to let them lead themselves.
