There comes a time in every new mother’s life when she finds herself staring at her screaming, smelly "bundle of joy” and wishing someone had told her that her house would reek of vomit, or that she shouldn’t buy the cute onesies with a thousand impossible buttons, or that she might cry more than the baby.

Best-selling humor author Dawn Dais, mother to a one-year-old and author of The Sh!t No One Tells You About Toddlers, is convinced that there is a reason for this lack of preparedness. She believes that a vast conspiracy exists to hide the horrific truth about parenting from doe-eyed expectant mothers who might otherwise abandon their babies in hospitals and run for it. In The Sh!t No One Tells You, Dais tells it like it is, revealing what it’s really like to be a new parent and providing helpful insights, humor, and hope for those who feel overwhelmed by the exhausting trials they’re suddenly facing. Eschewing the adorableness that oozes out of other parenting books, Dais offers real advice from real moms along with hilarious anecdotes, clever tips, and the genuine encouragement every mom needs in order to survive the first year of parenthood.

Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it tells it like it is with both humor and love. It reminds a new parent that they are not alone in the less sexy parts of new parenthood. And everyone can use a dollop of that truth.

What To Express In Your Card: You are the most awesome parent! But know that you are not alone in moments of confusion. We have all been there. Embracing this truth is good practice for the moments to come. You are rocking it all and I am sending you lots of love.
