Based on her years of experience as a neuroscientist, Dr. Kingston gives expectant mothers, and their healthcare professionals, science-based tools to mellow the waves of mental ups and downs and bring back joy into early motherhood. Pregnant moms, read Your Brain on Pregnancy and let your daily mantra be: 'I'm doing the greatest calling in the world, growing a little person.'"" -- DR. WILLIAM AND MARTHA SEARS, co-authors of The Healthy Brain Book and The Sears Baby Book ""Most people have heard of postpartum depression.
