520    O'Connell is a smart twentysomething who treats her 
       pregnancy like a new project, researching and planning. 
       She envisions a natural birth and a year of wholesome 
       breast feeding. But things do not go as she expects. Life 
       throws curveballs, and after 40 hours of contractions, she
       opts for a C-section. She manages to nurse for a year but 
       resents her baby's control over her body. This is not a 
       book about the wonders of motherhood but about the tension
       between culturally inherited ideals and the realities of 
       lived, bodily experience.
