You're Doing it Wrong!: Mothering, Media, and Medical Expertise is a hardcover by Bethany L Johnson; Margaret M Quinlan, listed under All Books as sku-535858541. Drawing on their experiences as intersectional feminists with two small children each and on other caretakers' stories, the authors examine advice about conception, pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum life, and infant care. They trace mothering advice from nineteenth-century newspapers, magazines, doctors' records, and personal papers to websites, Facebook groups, and Instagram. The book compares Victorian and current claims to expertise, including those of medical professionals and experienced mothers. It also examines the pressure social media can place on new mothers, the support it can offer, and topics from infertility treatment to infant development milestones.
