Book Description
Are you done with reels that show moms who make it look so easy when some mornings you don’t even manage to get your hair brushed before taking your kids to school? Have you ever been mom shamed for something you’ve done or haven’t done for your children? Or have you—even unintentionally—mom shamed someone else? Are you tired of the unrealistic expectations of motherhood that is portrayed all over social media? The truth is, momming isn’t about having it all figured out. No mom has it all figured out. Instagram Moms are Full of Sh*t, To Hell With Mom Shaming shows the honest, often chaotic, realities of being a mom, and knowing that in all the wonderful craziness, they are doing a great job! Writing from personal experience and input from other moms, Lesley Prosko, mother of two little ones, takes an in-depth look at some of the most common mom-shaming themes, considering cultural, generational, historical, and parenting style differences, including: • birth plans • breastfeeding vs formula • vaccinations • child sleep habits • working mom vs stay-at-home mom • exercising while pregnant • navigating screen time • and more Told with insight, humour, and sporadic sarcasm, this practical resource is designed to help real moms stop comparing themselves to other moms who want the world to think that every day is a great one—because those moms are full of sh*t.
