Item #30: Signed copy of the book “MOTHERHOOD COMES NATURALLY (and other vicious lies)” by Jill Smokler (AKA Scary Mommy) (US only)

Motherhood- Cover

Newly pregnant and scared out of her mind, Jill Smokler lay on her OBGYN’s examination table and was told the biggest lie she’d ever heard in her life: “Motherhood is the most natural thing in the world.”

Instead of quelling her nerves like that well intentioned nurse hoped to, Jill was instead set up for future of questioning exactly what DNA strand she was missing that made the whole mother-hood experience feel less than natural to her. Wonderful? Yes. Miraculous? Of course. Worth-while? Without a doubt. But natural? Not so much. Jill returns with all-new essays debunking more than 20 pervasive myths about motherhood, giving you what few others will dare: The truth.
