It's also about the powerful transformation we go through on the journey to becoming "mama." <p/>We created <i>The Motherly Guide to Becoming Mama</i> to coach and inspire you each step of the way. This is the pregnancy book we wish we'd had when we first became mothers--a mama-centered guide that doesn't just focus on your baby's needs, but honors and coaches <i>you</i> through this profound life change. <p/>Here's the most important thing to remember: you are a phenom, and you are going to rock this. <p/>And you don't have to do this alone. At your highest highs and your lowest lows, there is a village of professionals and peers to traverse this path with you. <p/>This book won't bog you down with demands, give you more to be worried about, or tell you what to do. It's impossible to know exactly what to expect during your pregnancy--after all, you are your own amazing woman with unique dreams, experiences, and needs.
