New mums are often in desperate need of care and support. Physical care may be available, but mental health is often overlooked. In kind, encouraging verses, the author lets new mums know that it’s okay to feel scared and overwhelmed, that it’s perfectly fine to take time to adjust and that, in the end, all will be fine.
