About the Author

Cassidy, Elizabeth Sarah: - Elizabeth Sarah Cassidy is passionate about supporting new mothers as they enter one of the most remarkable passages of their lifetime. For as statistically common an experience as motherhood is, Sarah finds that truthful conversation about its nuances remains muted. She encourages transparent looks at the transition to honor the rainbow of experiences amongst women. Sarah lives outside of Chicago with her husband, two four-leggeds, and whichever of her three young men happen to be home.

Praise for this book

"A must-read for new moms navigating the complexities of motherhood, Swaddled will inspire mothers to release the internalized myths of 'the good mother' and find their own path with grace and self-compassion." -Dr. Angele Close, Clinical Psychologist

"Swaddled is a tightly wrapped blanket, a cozy nest for new mothers as they're launched from prenatal expectation into postpartum reality. I'm so relieved to know I'm not the only one feeling these feelings." -Alaina, Working Mother of Three

"Even the medically safest, happiest birth can leave a woman feeling like she slid off a cliff, as attention shifts precipitously from the radiantly expectant mother to the incomprehensibly precious baby. Swaddled honors the new mother and ensures that she isn't alone, as she embarks on the remarkable journey of nurturing life outside of the womb." -Heather Heiberger, MD, FACOG OB/GYNE

"This is the book I needed when I had my first child. I wish I'd had the embrace of knowing I wasn't alone in my self-doubt and fear in being a new mother. Swaddled is a game changer, opening the conversation about what it really looks like to become the lifeline for the most important - and entirely dependent - person in the world, your baby...when there's no room for error and you've never done the job before."-Denise, Working Mother of Two
