Матера вам не наймичка, або Чому діти це — прекрасно...

This book is about authentic, living, imperfect motherhood. About a mother who, through the prism of humor and self-irony, using a light dose of elegant obscene language, tries to get through the day and endure the night. From a pregnancy test to battles in kindergarten. About first baths, teeth, snot, and uncomfortable questions.

We will walk respectfully through all periods of motherhood, trying to stay on course to preserve common sense and mental balance. Let's break down stereotypes, destroy patterns, and gently "detoxify" the woman. Let's develop immunity to unsolicited advice and superstitions.

This book is for moms to support and inspire; expectant mothers to tune in and know what to expect; grandmothers to remember and experience again, and daddies to better understand all these ladies.
