Overview
How do you know if youāre ready to have a baby? How do you know if you might be pregnant? And how do you deal with peeing all the time and being hungry all the time and fielding well-meaning but kind of insulting advice and finding a doula and being dropped by your old friends and learning why itās called mom brain and not dad brain and the tyranny of the milestones youāre not meeting and negotiating boundaries with in-laws and realizing that your heart now exists outside of your chest and in the body of this tiny little being whose entire existence depends on the quality of your care?Ā
Ā
To tackle these questions and many others, award-winning cartoonist and memoirist Liana Finck began illustrating her early years of motherhood, giving images and language to her insecurities, frustrations, and wild joy.Ā

In How to Baby, Liana takes her witty and lacerating cartoons (āHobbies for Pregnant Women: Waiting on Hold with the Insurance Companyā) and weaves them together with comic essays (āYou Married a Brute. Worse. Youāre a Nag: Go Ahead and Argue with Each Otherā), handy lists (āNesting. The Comprehensive List of What to Buy and Why Getting Things Used Is Dangerous and Unamericanā), and profound observations. Together, these brilliant pieces form an immersive and comprehensive narrative wholeāa baby book, a resource, and an emotional balmāfor our time.
