Synopsis "This is Trying To Conceive: Real life experiences dealing with infertility"
Are you struggling to conceive? Do you feel no one else understands what it's like dealing with infertility? Wouldn't it help you to read real-life experiences from others who have had their own rollercoaster journey?Infertility sucks, and it takes over your thoughts every day and night. Nobody chooses to have infertility, and, if you have been dealt this hand, know that you are not alone. Sheila Lamb, and the amazing contributors in this book, have either had their own personal infertility struggle, or they support women and men like you. They all want to help by sharing their experience of infertility, so that you too can survive and rise above this testing time in your life.In This is Trying To Conceive, you will read that: - Your feelings about infertility are perfectly normal - We all feel envious of our pregnant BFF - It's OK, and healthy, to grieve that you're not holding your baby in your arms yet - It's so important to laugh and find humour in your life whilst trying to conceive - We all find pregnancy announcements and baby showers difficult.This is Trying To Conceive is also for you if you have never struggled to have a baby, and therefore don't always 'get it'. You're probably not aware that one in eight couples are dealing with infertility, and that it is equally due to male and female complications. If you know of someone who is struggling to get pregnant but aren't sure how to support them, then This is Trying To Conceive is the book for you; it'll help you to understand and be supportive, and to steer clear of inadvertently saying something insensitive.This is Trying To Conceive has also been written for patient facing staff who have never experienced infertility themselves, for fertility practitioners who are supporting infertile women and men, and for health care professionals who are caring for women/couples who are pregnant after infertility.The TTC community is here for you, offering love, support and understanding on every page.
