The New Mom's Survival Guide by Jennifer Wider Md

Why can't I lose the extra weight?

Why am I shedding like my pet golden retriever?

I'm just too tired to have sex-- and it hurts. What should I do?

How can I tell the difference between the baby blues and a real depression?

Why am I having so many fights with my husband?

At last your baby has arrived, and you're experiencing all the joys that come with being a new mom.

So what can you do to deal with all these unexpected challenges? In this compassionate, comprehensive guide, Dr. Jennifer Wider, a physician as well as the mother of two small children, delivers up-to-date medical information, candid answers to a host of questions, and expert advice on a range of postpartum issues, including:

-How to safely lose weight and exercise
-Cracked nipples and other breast-feeding concerns
-When the baby blues are more than just a phase
-Coping with thyroid problems, anemia, diabetes, urinary incontinence, and other conditions that can show up during or after pregnancy
