MY REVIEW
Being a mother myself, I was eager to read the first-hand account of a first-time would be mother and her pregnancy journey. It was a wonderful read. The narration of the incidents was extremely lucid and I could visualize them unfolding in front of my eyes. Right from the time the author discovered that she was pregnant, to the anxiety, to the coping up of joy and sorrow together, the journey has been described beautifully.
I loved the author’s husband’s love and cooperation throughout the pregnancy despite him going through a phase of sorrow. The husband’s perspective also added freshness. The narration is crisp. The emotional journey of 9 months till the time the bundle of joy arrives can be felt through the author’s words.
All-in-all an extremely endearing read, which every woman who has gone through this stage would be able to relate to. I would recommend this book to all the book lovers.
