Emma Barnett Reihenfolge der Bücher

Maternity leave is portrayed as an intense, ongoing commitment rather than a restful break, as Emma Barnett reflects on her experiences during her second maternity leave. She highlights the collective forgetting that occurs after the first leave, which leads to unrealistic expectations. Rather than offering parenting advice, the book candidly explores the challenges and realities of maternity leave, likening it to a military tour of duty. Barnett aims to validate the emotional and physical labor involved, making this a vital read for mothers navigating this complex journey.
