The Checklist
New Motherhood
I became a mother when my daughter was born last summer. For me, motherhood is a daily practice that requires more grit, empathy, authenticity, and strength than I had access to before. As I approach month eight on this journey, these are my tried pieces and resources I most recommend to new mothers and mothers-to-be. As I was reviewing my complete list of recommendations for this story, something they each share became obvious: every item on this list was created by a mother herself.
