Moving through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood, Allison Mei-Li traces the tension between holding on and letting go: of time, identity, and a child who is always becoming someone new. With poems grounded in everyday moments-from late-night Google searches to sun-drenched kitchens-Mei-Li offers a tender, clear-eyed portrait of motherhood as it is lived.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.19 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 11, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51892435812640,"sku":"9798993423302","price":16.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/LzfRvqOsi69798993423302.webp?v=1781986404","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/a-history-of-holding-poems-on-motherhood-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
