Share information about difficult motherhood transitions

No one talked with me about the deep and soul-scraping pain of giving birth to an unhealthy child. No one told me how I'd blame myself, how I'd feel disconnected from her, how I would be wracked for months with guilt and anger that I could not name or place. No one handed me a book called "Sometimes You Will Hate the World You Created for Yourself - And Still Love the People In It." I wish someone had. I wish there was such a book. I think maybe I should write it.
