Reasons Mommy Drinks

A wickedly funny look at the challenges of new parenthood.

With cocktail recipes.

Being a new mom is "AHHHH WHAT HAVE I DONE?" hard. Why are all these tiny clothes so expensive? Who wrote these mind-numbing board books? Will Mommy ever carry a purse again that's not a diaper bag? And how is she even functioning off so little sleep?

Reasons Mommy Drinks is a fresh, insightful, and hilarious collection of the various struggles faced by new parents--from mommy groups and single-people envy to the end of maternity leave--with a well-deserved cocktail recipe to go with each one. This must-have resource will help sleep-deprived new moms survive the baby years with their sense of humor, if not their lives as they once knew them, intact.
