C-Section Recovery & Support Blog

Did I get your attention?  It got mine when I first saw it.  In fact I couldn’t resist the title so I grabbed a quick copy.

Porn for New Moms is  a delight.  I’m having the most fun with this book and I’m not even a new mom, maybe it’s because I remember those days

This isn’t your typical kind of porn, but it’s exactly what a new mom just having given birth would fanaticize about, and if you’ve ever been a brand new mom, your fantasies take on a whole new meaning.

Here’s what I mean, you’re just home from the hospital after having your baby and all of a sudden you don’t have a care in the world. Your husband takes care of the meals, chores, baby and best of all he caters to your every need giving you all the rest and relaxation you can stand.  How wonderful is that?

Sound too good to be true?  Well maybe it is but now you can fantasize about what that would be like in this delightful new book that has page after page of sizzling shots of the most dreamy guys and captions that will make any new mom melt into her chair. It’s what every woman wants in her man, and for a woman there’s just something really sexy about a Dad taking care of his baby, doing the chores and showing his attentiveness.  This would actually excite any woman.

I can’t help but think what a great pick-me-up this would be for any new mom and what a hoot it would be as a shower gift.

If you’re a new mom yourself and you happen to get this book, I suggest you leave it on your hubby’s night stand; it may inspire him

Preeclampsia, also known as Toxemia, is a problem that occurs in some women during pregnancy.    It and is related to increased blood pressure and protein in the mother’s urine. The usual signs of preeclampsia are high blood pressure, swelling that doesn’t go away and large amounts of protein in your urine.
