What was a \u003cem\u003ewake window\u003c\/em\u003e? How could anyone function under the weight of so much love? All their new-mom friends were overwhelmed too. In search of the book they needed, editors Rebecca Knight and Julie Buntin invited sixty-five acclaimed writers and artists--Julia Phillips, Kirstin Valdez Quade, Liana Finck, Jenny Slate, Naima Coster, and more--to riff on shared concerns: burp volcanos, career shifts, breastfeeding logs, partnership dynamics, minor victories and major insecurities. Here is a bedside table companion for every mother who has wondered how she'll make it through the wilderness of early parenthood, and a window into her experience for the family and friends desperate to better care for their beloved moms-to-be. Brave, unexpected, and revelatory, \u003cem\u003eNotes to New Mothers\u003c\/em\u003e offers a new map of motherhood as both a singular and communal experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContributor Bio:\u003c\/strong\u003eKnight, Rebecca\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRebecca Knight\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author of the novels \n\u003cem\u003eHex, The Sunlit Night\u003c\/em\u003e, and poems \n\u003cem\u003eLofoten\u003c\/em\u003e, and screenwriter of \n\u003cem\u003eThe Sunlit Night\u003c\/em\u003e feature film adaptation.
