Your first week as a Mom: What you need to survive

What’s one thing you wouldn’t say in one of your books?
Becoming a parent is like contracting a debilitating disease. Imagine a disease where you couldn’t sleep, you couldn’t have sex, you couldn’t travel, you had aches and pains all the time. Now, this doesn’t mean you don’t love your kids. In fact, the more you love them, the harder it is. Nobody tells you what the pull of loving your kids will do to the rest of your life — including your relationship with your spouse. Even if you had a relatively healthy sex life before kids, after the second kid it’s just kind of done. There’s not always as much love to go around.
