What to Expect When You're Expecting meets Bad Feminist in Mamá desobediente, a groundbreaking non-fiction book, delivering for the first time in the Spanish language a comprehensive and disruptive feminist take on modern motherhood. Written by the renowned journalist, sociologist, and feminist mom Ester Vivas.
 
Underpinned in rigorous academic research and the author's own experience, Mamá desobediente is an outstanding feminist, honest, non-intimidating twist on the classic maternity handbooks. Calling upon a disruptive and realistic perspective on motherhood, that opens doors and breaks myths and taboos on both common and neglected issues—such as infertility, obstetric violence, breastfeeding, and abortion—this book provides its readers with resources and knowledge to make better and more informed decisions. An essential work that fills a gap in the Spanish language non-fiction.
