Motherhood is challenging. I had my twins at 41, after a long struggle with infertility. In my book, I document the challenges and the misconceptions of motherhood, as my cathartic journey of those difficult first years as a mother. My approach to it is with humor and lightheartedness, because that just makes life so much easier to digest, wouldn't you agree? The insights.. and the good laughs those are what I live for...
And I know many of you will relate to it.
Nobody tells you that motherhood can be a serious hazard. It doesn't come with a warning sign or label, and I have to say that becoming a mother is the riskiest and most dangerous thing I've done to date - and not just physically. I wasn't informed that my IQ would take a nosedive or that everything I thought I was good at before these little monsters would go to shit - let alone that on-the-job training on how to keep our new little human beings alive was the only way to learn, which contrary to popular belief, did not come naturally to me.
