It's my bible !! - By: Molly Flynn, 14 Oct 2008 
I bought this book months ago when i was having a 'down' day. It really cheered me up, made me feel like i wasn't the only one feeling like motherhood was a neverending chore. It is full of practical advice, i keep it by the bed & dip into it time & time again to read relevant chapters. Thanks netmums.
Excellent, informative, fun and full of useful advice! - By: Freya Fowles, 05 Jun 2008 I bought this book to try & recapture a bit of happiness & stress-less existence for myself before it's too late. With three children under four stress is my middle name. This is full of really useful suggestions, advice, anecdotes from other mums etc - strategies for dealing with badly behaved children, relationship troubles, work pressures, housework crises & losing yourself into the big mum hole. I really can't recommend this book enough for sensible, practical, down to earth advice. And it's really nice to know you're not the only mum who feels like she's not coping!
Honest writing about being a mum - By: H. Harrison, 08 May 2008 This book is fantastic! It's describes what motherhood is really like - acknowledging that children are a great blessing, but that they can also try your patience & sometimes drive you to distraction! It's about how to cope - with everything from the children's bad behaviour, to organising your home, & (perhaps most importantly) some sound advice for when you get that sinking feeling. It's written by people who really understand what it's like to be a mother. And the quotes from the netmums.com website add that touch of realism, acknowledging the fact that you're not alonein how you feel. I can't recommend this book highly enough!
Reassuring, Inspiring, Encouraging - By: L. J. Bowe, 10 Mar 2008 Great book offering advice, inspiration, ideas (together with annecdotes from other mums) for you to live as a happy mum. Not at all dictatorial. Has practical ideas & tips for making life easier, more organised. The overall tone is relax & enjoy your life with your kids - no-one's perfect!
No mum should be without it! - By: Ms. J. HAMMOND, 20 Jan 2008 Such a brilliant, refreshing book. It is so reassuring to realise you are not alone & that your worries, fears & feelings are common. Includes fantastic tips on how best to look after yourself & not just your kids! Brilliant!!
