Påmindes av diskussionen om förlossningar om en ave de bästa böcker jag läst de senaste åren: Lucy Jones’ Matrescence www.dn.se/kultur/inte-...
Inte bara alla nyblivna mammor borde läsa Lucy Jones
Myterna och de omöjliga idealen är så starka. Allt det här sätter Lucy Jones ord på i den fantastiska boken ”Matrescence”

When I look back on my journey to embracing #gyaru, I’m reminded of how much my mindset changed after going through matrescence. ❤️🩹 I do what I want, and stopped worrying whether I’d be judged by others. Not only did I rediscover my identity, I elevated it! ❤️🔥

Hi, Blue Sky!
I’m Christina — a therapist, feminist, and advocate for moms. I talk about mental load, matrescence, and the realities of modern motherhood. Let’s connect and have real conversations about the stuff that doesn’t always get talked about.

Matrescence by Lucy Jones
Sometimes the perfect book is published at the perfect time in your life. For me, that book is Matrescence by Lucy Jones, which came out 2 months before Sylvia was born. When Jones recently hand printed a small batch of t-shirts, I was lucky enough to nab one. More book shirts!!

This is so hard for me to untangle on a personal level because I also went through matrescence during April/May 2020.
There's a whole future research area around how covid/lockdown destroyed folks ability to self regulate feelings and how we are seeing it daily with road rage, people screaming at service workers/teachers/hospital folks... covid impacts brain function in ways we do not fully understand yet.
