Pls could someone recommend a book for a stressy soon to be mum of 2?

I want something to read during my pregnancy which will make me feel more positive and excited for 2 children under 3

If that makes sense
Thank you

little Woman - this was the first book that came to mind. Not/about little ones, but the girls are close in age.

Brigerton or Jilly Cooper - raunchy escapism?

If you feel stressed, I suggest reading something light and kind like Harry Potter. These books always improve my mood Smile

Yeah, "little woman" is a perfect book, as I think.

Little Women and Good Wives. You can’t go wrong. If you have already read them then perhaps read them again.

Thank you. Is little women related to having 2 young children?

No it’s based on Louisa May Alcott’s family life. The little women are four girls growing up in the shadow of the American Civil War. Their father refers to them as his “little women” when he writes home.

Heavily pregnant?
Newborn on the horizon?

But a magazine

Egghead81 · 30/04/2021 18:44

No judgment Had you not heard of Little Women?
tacolove · 30/04/2021 18:58

@Egghead81 I've heard of it but no idea what it's about. I'm not heavily pregnant either. I've only just found out. Not sure why that makes a difference though.

Egghead81 · 30/04/2021 19:00

How come the name change?

Egghead81 · 30/04/2021 19:01

And I read “soon to be” as heavily pregnant
I made a joke
I think went over your head
