This was a real test. Would a mother of teenagers relate to the book. After all it's all about the first year of motherhood. But Cate at Moments of Whimsy found Cocktails at Naptime had more than a few uses...
"I was somewhat perplexed though. At this stage of my life, I should be sitting down with my own overseas blogging buddy (Vix?) and penning my own woefully inadequate guide for surviving the teenage years, taking the lead from the clever girls who wrote this tome from different continents after connecting via the blogging world. (You can read their personal blogs here and here). Could I still relate to a book about that first year of child rearing when I was so many years down the track? Would I recall those various scenarios referred to in the book such as sleep deprivation (mine), sex deprivation (his) and a flabby tummy (mine again)? "
