Dreaming wistfully of a business trip, just for one uninterrupted night’s sleep? Amazed that your newest child was conceived, since you’ve worn nothing but maternity sweatpants to bed for the last three years? Can’t remember the last time you introduced yourself by your own name, not as your child’s mother? Absolutely worn out putting conference calls on mute so that you can use your breast pump? It may be time to reclaim your “me.”

This book is an outgrowth of the perpetual and passionate conversations that mothers all over the country are having. Situated around the author’s decision to leave her position at a law firm and her search to regain her “me,” Putting the Me Back in Mommy considers the ways in which mothers lose themselves among the demands of work, home, and family life after the arrival of kids, using data and anecdotes to make clear—in poignant and humorous ways—the tensions of modern motherhood. It offers a number of strategies, large and small, for reclaiming oneself in the midst of these highly pressured years.
