Dear Motherhood - Words of Emma Heaphy

Regular price
Tax included.

A collection of real, raw and romantic poetry and prose about the big little love story that is early motherhood.

Dear Motherhood is not your standard motherhood book. Made up of chapters addressed to each mother at key stages in her early motherhood journey, the 112 musings contained within carry the reader through, or back to, this very special time in her life.

In this motherhood must-have, Emma Heaphy delivers fresh perspectives on many unspoken motherhood realities, leaving the mother feeling seen, encouraged and inspired.

From pre-conception to life with two children, no stone is left unturned. Miscarriage, the effect on your relationship with your partner/spouse, mental health, feelings of guilt, shame and loneliness are some, but not all, of the hard truths included in this book. Also included, are letters to her children, including the viral hit “You are my reason”.

Written from the depths of her love for her children, the pieces are rich in heart, soul and vulnerability, and have captured the attention of mothers around the world.

Dear Motherhood is a breath of fresh air and it deserves a place on every mother’s bedside table, feeding station or bookshelf.

Easy MUST Read

I wish I knew about Emma while I was pregnant. Every page has been so beautiful to read and it’s just so relatable. It shows that although each of our parenthood journeys are different we all feel the same thing, I love how Emma has put her motherhood journey into words and I highly recommend! It’s hard to read without crying so make sure you have some tissues handy!

I will be purchasing her other books for sure.
Thanks viva team for stocking this book!!
