V.N. asks from Plainfield, IL on April 24, 2011

Infertility Books

I would like to give a book or two to a friend going through infertility.

I came across a few titles that sounded interesting.

So Close: Infertile and Addicted to Hope
The Empty Picture Frame

Any suggestions on any of these or other books?

I don't know your friend's religious beliefs, but I found
Infertility: Finding God's Peace in the Journey by Lois Flowers
to be helpful.
Also www.resolve.org puts out a publication that is both informative and supportive. Might be some support on the site now as well.

"Inconceivable: A Womans Triumph over Despair and Statistic" by Julia Indichova was a very uplifting, wonderful book - would HIGHLY recommend.
Also, second what Carolyn mentioned - "The Infertility Cure" by Randine Lewis.
