505 0  Hello! Start here -- Drowning out the noise and learning 
       to listen to you -- This is why you're the boss: the crazy
       cool shit your body can do -- The prenatal what-ifs -- The
       postpartum what-ifs -- Your tools to return to -- We'll 
       leave you with this ...  
520    Full of honest advice and inclusive options, Why Did No 
       One Tell Me This? is the funny, personality-filled, 
       illustrated guide to pregnancy, birth, and beyond that 
       modern parents have been waiting for. Pregnancy and 
       childbirth are full of big questions--what if my baby is 
       enormous? Will my water break naturally? What even goes 
       into a 'birth plan'? How on earth am I going to keep this 
       child alive once it's here? And where do I turn for advice
       that will really work for me and my life? In Why Did No 
       One Tell Me This?, doulas and reproductive health experts 
       Natalia Hailes and Ash Spivak answer these questions and 
       more for today's wellness-focused, intersectional parents-
       to-be. Drawing on years of experience in their birth doula
       practice Brilliant Bodies, Natalia and Ash guide readers 
       through the entire process, from the earliest stages of 
       pregnancy to the jungle of postpartum feelings and 
       responsibilities. Bite-sized pieces of advice are 
       interspersed with vibrant illustrations by artist Louise 
       Reimer to break down the doubts and fears that often 
       surround childbirth, empowering readers to explore their 
       own individual needs, know their rights, and find their 
       voice both during and after pregnancy. By addressing 
       common fears, incorporating regular tips for partners, and
       providing information on a wide array of birth and parents
       styles, this unique and inclusive guide is the perfect 
       tool for a new generation of parents.
