Contents It's time for #noshameparenting -- Drink a little wine! Why it's okay to break most of the pregnancy "rules" -- C-section vs. "natural": why the way we give birth shouldn't be a competition -- Protein is protein: breastfeeding, formula, and why it doesn't really matter which one you choose -- Knock yourself out: letting your kid cry himself to sleep won't ruin his life (and it may save yours) -- You don't have to be Mary Poppins: why your kid will be fine if they go to daycare (or don't) -- Time out! How to discipline without losing your sh*t (or your kid) -- Embrace technology: there's literally no way we can keep our kids off screens anyway -- Technically, french fries are a vegetable: how to get meals on the table and make dinnertime less stressful -- Busting the myth of "having it all": it doesn't exist (so can we stop saying it, please?) -- Get it on: how much sex everyone is really having after kids -- There's no such thing as normal: embrace your family's situation (even if you didn't choose it) -- Epilogue: the bottom line: seriously, you can't f*ck up your kids.
Summary "Cribsheet meets The Sh!t No One Tells You in this no-holds-barred, judgment-free parenting guide that sets the record straight on every hot-button parenting topic by longtime journalist and founder of the viral #NoShameParenting movement"-- Provided by publisher.
Parents-to-be find themselves in a brave new world where every decision they make is fraught, every action they take is judged, and everything they do seems to be the wrong thing. Powers sets the record straight on all of the insane conflicts that parents face-- from having a glass of wine while pregnant to sleep training, childcare, feeding, and even sex after baby. She shows that it is possible to take the stress out of parenting-- and sit back and enjoy the ride. -- adapted from back cover
