Everyone told Sinead that having a newborn was a bubble of bliss - and after a traumatic pregnancy, she was hoping they were right. Instead, a few weeks in, Sinead was admitted to the Mother & Baby unit at Starship with Vivie, in the grips of severe postnatal depression. An honest, gut-wrenching, irreverent and shockingly funny memoir about motherhood and mental health, with deeply personal insights into Sinead's own journey. It Nearly Killed Me But I Love You is a no-holds-barred discussion of what it is to be a mother, written with humour, wit and devastating frankness. This book will be for, and about, her. This book will be for mums and stepmums and mums with mental illnesses and mums without mums. This book will be for me.
