Self-Help Relationships
A rehearsal for parenthood? Who would ever think that
what we have been led to believe is natural, instinctive and
automatic might require a run-through? Many expectant
couples spend the pregnancy period shopping for high-tech
baby paraphernalia and decorating the nursery. Yet while
they are busy searching for these props of parenthood, they
fail to consider the most important part of becoming a
parent - what it really means to be a mother or
father. Pregnancy is the perfect time for expectant
parents to run through a 'psychological dress rehearsal' of
what life may be like once the baby is born. Why is it
important for a couple to discuss how housework and
childcare responsibilities will be divided? How can
pregnancy and a new baby affect a couple's relationship?
When is a woman at risk for postpartum depression? These are
just some of the questions The Journey to Parenthood:
Myths, Reality and What Really Matters answers. It
teaches parents-to-be how they can start to identify and
address issues so they don't take center stage once the baby
arrives, when patience, time and sleep are in short supply.
