Eventually a midwife woke me. 'It's time to push, ' she said, pointing to the machine that was monitoring my baby. It showed contraction after contraction, spiking and declining with mountainous patterns like the heart rate machines on medical shows. Beside the machine was my husband, Steve's, face, watching me closely, complete with massive eye bags from worry and exhaustion; it appeared that while I'd been sleeping he'd been on high alert. Taking one for the team, you could say, which was only fair because apparently-I was about to push an entire human through my hoo-ha." With her career down the toilet, a husband who was never home, a baby screaming non-stop and her cries for help falling on deaf ears, Megan Blandford spent years saying, "I'm fine". Spoiler alert (not really): she wasn't fine. Megan sank into postnatal depression and anxiety, with a highly negative inner voice leading the charge in the battle for better mental health. Until Megan faced a life-changing question: What if the enemy inside isn't the enemy after all? I'm Fine (and other lies) is a touching true story of motherhood: the challenges it presents, and the hope that can be found within it. 588 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed April 30, 2019). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Postpartum depression.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85105565 650 0 Mother and infant.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh86005300 650 0 Motherhood|xPsychological aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008107964 650 0 Mothers|xMental health.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2010102433 650 0 Postnatal care|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85105558|xPsychological aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002011485 650 7 Postpartum depression.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1073212 650 7 Mother and infant.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1026892 650 7 Motherhood|xPsychological aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1026918 650 7 Mothers|xMental health.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1026970 650 7 Postnatal care|xPsychological aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1073192 650 7 Postnatal care.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1073189 650 7 Motherhood.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0001001 650 7 Mothers.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001021 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBlandford, Megan.|tI'm fine (and other lies).|dMelbourne, Australia, Wild Dingo Press, [2019] |z9780648349877|w(OCoLC)1090644349 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2108172|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
