"Momover reads like a juicy exposé that spills a delicious secret:
a happy mom equals a happy baby. Dana Wood redefines the tenets of
modern motherhood with wit and a stockpile of indispensable, expert
advice." --Cynthia Rowley

fabulous self!" --Liz Lange, founder and president of Liz Lange

Okay, so every day since the baby was born has been a dirty sweats/no
mascara/bad hair day kind of day. You don't need your mother to tell
you it's time to lose that just-home-from-the-hospital look before it
sticks forever. You've got Dana Wood, patron saint of stylish new moms
everywhere, to show you how to take world-class care of
yourself--drumroll please--after the baby's born, and beyond!
In this sensibly chic guide, Wood reveals the secrets of surviving
the emotional, physical, and spiritual challenges that emerge in that
bleary-eyed, sleep- and time-deprived first year. In the trademark
Momover style popularized in her eponymous blog, she provides the
motivation you need to hop off the new-mommy self-pity train, and get
with a new and improved, post-baby program. What's more, she proves
that doing right by yourself is just another way of doing right by
your baby.
