Ms. Klempnauer Miller is very honest about her journey into motherhood. After struggling with infertility, it is her partner who becomes pregnant (on the first try, no less), so she feels like something of an outsider. She discusses her fears (if she'll feel like a "second" or inferior mother, if she'll be able to love the child as if she had given birth to her, etc, etc) and her relationship woes (parenthood changes many things) with refreshing candor, giving voice to feelings and thoughts that I'm sure she's not alone in experiencing.
It's definitely an interesting read, and I would recommend this book.… (mere)
