The designed objects that surround us when it comes to menstruation, birth control, conception, pregnancy, childbirth, and early motherhood vary as oddly, messily, and dramatically as the stereotypes suggest. This smart, image-rich, fashion-forward, and design-driven book explores more than eighty designs—iconic, conceptual, archaic, titillating, emotionally charged, or just plain strange—that have defined the relationships between people and babies during the past century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEach object tells a story. In striking images and engaging text, \u003cem\u003eDesigning Motherhood\u003c\/em\u003e unfolds the compelling design histories and real-world uses of the objects that shape our reproductive experiences. The authors investigate the baby carrier, from the Snugli to BabyBjörn, and the (re)discovery of the varied traditions of baby wearing; the tie-waist skirt, famously worn by a pregnant Lucille Ball on \u003cem\u003eI Love Lucy\u003c\/em\u003e, and essential for camouflaging and slowly normalising a public pregnancy; the home pregnancy kit, and its threat to the authority of male gynaecologists; and more. Memorable images—including historical ads, found photos, and drawings—illustrate the crucial role design and material culture plays throughout the arc of human reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book features a prologue by Erica Chidi and a foreword by Alexandra Lange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eContributors include Luz Argueta-Vogel, Zara Arshad, Nefertiti Austin, Juliana Rowen Barton, Lindsey Beal, Thomas Beatie, Caitlin Beach, Maricela Becerra, Joan E.
