"You'll always be my baby 
just heavier to hold 
you'll always be my beginning 
but a comfort that feels old 
you'll always be my heartbeat 
A familiar but new sound 
You'll always be the ticking clock 
in a world you made slow down...."\nJess's poetry books have sold over 50,000 copies worldwide!\n'My After All', named after Jess's viral poem, is her final book in the series of early motherhood poetry and prose, after 'From One Mom to a Mother' and 'All I See Is You', which have sold tens of thousands worldwide. It delves into the raw and the real with a beauty that shines through even the messy truths. These pieces reflect the love we have for our growing children, our transformation as mothers, and our relationships post kids.\nJess doesn't "leave frills around the fabric of early motherhood", she writes about the love we live and breathe for them, but also the things we find hard to talk about, some things that might leave you saying, "me too".

Her words are healing, deeply relatable and the comforting tonic all new mothers should have on their bedside table. Her children's books are equally as wonderful, my little boy adored The Rainbow in my Heart so much and we regularly take the sentiments from it to help him through emotional ups and downs.
