More about SisterWeb

More about Like a Mother
Like a Mother is the pregnancy book that every smart, feminist woman has been waiting for". It's the book your badass, real-talk friend or relative would give you to read alongside more traditional resources. It’s a timely, deep-dive into pregnancy and early motherhood that debunks myths and dated assumptions, offering guidance and camaraderie to women navigating one of the biggest and most profound changes in their lives.
