"I would recommend this one for anyone who knows someone who struggles with infertility. Personally, I felt like everything covered in the book I already knew, having experienced a lot of it myself, but I would highly recommend it as a book to help people understand infertility (especially those unfamiliar with it). If you want someone to understand how you feel or what you are going through, hand them read this book. It's a quick and easy read but very informative on the trials and feelings of infertility."
"Before reading this book, I thought I knew everything there is to know about grief and loss. It's funny how I never thought of infertility itself as a loss. I always took note of miscarriage and stillbirth because that was a loss of life. I also learned that grieving is not a lineal process but a continual cycle as we grief different parts of our "reproductive story" as the book calls it. The story that exists in the very core of our being of how our story of pregnancy and parenthood would play out. So in short I feel more normal. I would really recommend this book to all our family & friends. People want to help but they don't know how and this book helps in that area too."
"Okay. I love this book. It explores the emotional aspect of infertility. The three authors each experienced infertility themselves and are also clinical psychologists who currently work with people struggling through the crisis of infertility. That perspective gives a lot of depth and reality to this book. I appreciated the validation of feelings and the understanding of what some one struggling with infertility goes through. I feel that this book was very helpful and insightful. I learned and grew from the experience of reading this book. However, it was not an easy read. To go in depth on a subject so tender and sensitive and close to the heart - brought a lot of tears. You struggle with your own feelings and uncover other issues as you read. But - that is what makes it a healing experience. I recommend this book to anyone who has experienced a diagnosis of infertility or to anyone who truly wants to understand what those going through infertility experience. Anyway, sorry for the long review - but I really liked this book!"
