The Mommy Files : Secrets Every new mom should know Series


I'm running a series of article and a review for the book, The Mommy Files: Secrets Every New Mom Should Know (that no one else will tell you)! This book is perfect for those who are expecting or already have a little one at home!  My kids are 11 years and up and I loved reading the book! Call it reminiscing or call it reminder training for when you are talking to new moms!  
Here is the first article to introduce the book by author, Jen Klein:

Because SHEKNOWS® Parenting 
And Jen Klein knows motherhood. She's survived changing a soiled diaper in a truck-stop bathroom while suspending a baby in mid-air. She's witnessed the judgment of the so-called "Mommy Mafia." She's found dried applesauce on her shirt. And in her hair. And the baby's hair. And the dog's fur.

Here she reveals secrets she's learned along the way about mastering the art of motherhood, from how to handle strangers who ask how much weight you've gained to (finally!) getting your little ones on the big yellow bus -- on time and with clean underwear. Inside SheKnows.com Presents: The Mommy Files you'll find:

  • Your mom didn't know what she was doing either
  • A pediatrician is your partner, not your adversary
  • Playgroups are for moms more than they are for kids
  • Just because they can talk doesn't mean they can reason
  • Being a supermom is all about asking for help
Disclosed here in a friendly, wry look at motherhood, Jen Klein takes you through each lovable (and less than enjoyable) step toward that coveted title that will be screamed at you so many times in the years to come: "Mommy!"

Author Bio
Jen Klein is a mother of two boys and a girl, the youngest of whom just started kindergarten.
