Laughter and Tears
By Elisabeth Bing and Libby Colman, Ph.D.
(Henry Holt & Co., Inc., 1997)
Finally, a book that describes the "normal" ups and downs that new mothers experience and a book that normalizes the painful emotions, feelings of loss, resentments, frustrations, confusions and ambivalence that are part and parcel of the postpartum period. Written by two women who are experienced mothers and grandmothers and who have contributed greatly to the field of childbirth,
Laughter and Tears is very readable, realistic, practical in its suggestions, and relieving to new
parents. I highly recommend this book.
