Maggiori informazioni sul libro
A candid, feminist, and personal exploration of the science and culture surrounding pregnancy and motherhood. Like many first-time mothers, Angela Garbes was overwhelmed with questions upon becoming pregnant. She sought clarity on topics like placentas, labor, breastfeeding, and dietary restrictions, only to find that satisfying answers were hard to come by. Obstetricians provided cautious statistics, online sources offered conflicting information, and even trusted books were laden with judgment. To educate herself, Garbes embarked on an intensive journey, delving into the scientific mysteries and cultural attitudes surrounding motherhood. In her work, she rigorously examines the physiology, biology, and psychology of pregnancy, drawing on in-depth research and personal experience. With the curiosity of a journalist and the perspective of a feminist, she addresses pressing questions about miscarriage, complicated labors, and postpartum changes. The result is a visceral look at the transformative nine months of pregnancy and a call for better care, support, and information for women. Infused with humor and a deep appreciation for the female body, Garbes debunks myths and offers guidance to women navigating one of life’s most profound changes.
