Three Shoes, One Sock & No Hairbrush

Everything You Need to Know About Having Your Second Child.

Sooner or later, most women who have one child will go on to have a second. Many discover to their surprise that the shift from one to two can be just as life changing as the shift from none to one. Having two children is different from having one in almost every respect, but until now there has been very little information, advice or support for second-time mothers.

This book goes where other childcare books have feared to tread. It is an honest, humorous and inspiring account of what happens and how it feels when you have your second child.

Drawing on her own experience, as well as interviews with other mothers, health-care professionals and child experts, Rebecca Abrams explores the many new challenges that come with a second child. A combination of personal accounts, social and medical research and the author's own insights, the book provides the reader with both practical information and emotional support.
