An irreverent novel from the author of Fishnets & Fantasies that follows a woman in her mid-thirties as she tries to decide whether to become a mother. Creative Nonfiction Collective conference May 26 -- 28, 2023 (Ukings) From the author of Fishnets & Fantasies comes another irreverent novel that fuses comedy and tragedy to bring us a page-turner with characters we can root for. Just before her thirty-seventh birthday, Rose Ainsworth has her first attack of baby fever. She adores children, especially her sister?s kids, but she's facing a dilemma. Not only is her husband refusing to commit to becoming a parent, but her friends are drowning in all the joys of mothering. She feels cut off and, worst of all, she's worried that maybe she isn't motherhood material.Described as "a thoughtful, honest and poignant exploration of how motherhood continues to define us as women, and it invites us to recognize that we are our sisters' keepers" (Charlotte Empey) and an "entertaining and insightful look at baby fever" (Laura Earl), The Pregnant Pause follows Rose on the roller-coaster ride as she journeys through the potential pitfalls and prospects of parenting -- a journey that will be familiar to many women as they listen to their biological clock ticking away.
Pre-partum Depression Rule #1: Never Wear an Empire-Waisted Dress to a Baby Shower If you've been asked the question "When are you going to have a baby?" so many times that you feel as though your uterus is starring in a new reality TV show, this hilarious, insightful book is for you. Carrie Friedman shares her daily struggles with what she calls her "pre-partum depression"—from baby lust to panic, and everything in between. Fending off the "dreaded question" from everyone, including her yoga teacher, and navigating the minefield of toddler birthday parties, as well as creating her own faux baby registry under an assumed name, Carrie Friedman captures the process of deciding to have a baby with humor and smarts. If you're looking for refuge from prying questions, pet substitution, and the call of your biological clock, this book is a hilarious diversion." --Adrianne Frost, I Hate Other People's Kids "An absolute delight!" --Jamie Cat Callan, French Women Don't Sleep Alone
