[.ca] From High Heels To Bunny Slippers: Surviving the ... (ISBN 1933102144)

a must-have for every new mother making the transition from career to home:
This morning I walked my son to the school bus stop with a renewed sense of self. I felt better and more positive than I had in a year. Why? Because I spent the past few days reading "From High Heels to Bunny Slippers", authored by Christine Conners. What a wonderful and inspiring book! Although I have been self-employed and my little one came to us through adoption and that meant that I missed the 3 am feedings and dirty diapers I still related to what the author had written. I went from feeling ostracized by my peers and feeling worthless to the realization that I had the most important job in the world. Conners made me laugh, cry and dig deep into my heart. Having a child is a big enough life change but making the decision to jump into the bunny slippers with both feet is a tough one. Christine helps readers get past the stigmas, guilt and other range of feelings that come with this decision. She covers childcare and other issues as well. My only regret is that I did not have this book a year ago when I first entered the career of motherhood.
