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?
Thank you ladies for your suggestions. I was looking for more supportive than informative.
the book, "Take charge of your fertility" ... is a big hit with many women I have come across..
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.
I went through infertility and found that the book infertility for dummies had a lot of information.
"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.
The infertility cure by Randine Lewis, PhD
"the ancient chinese wellness program for getting pregnant and having healthy babies"
it shows up at amazon.com for prices ranging from $6.25 (used) to $11.55 (directly from amazon.com) plus shipping charge
book explains about acupuncture and diet changes
"acupuncture is applied in order to supply what is lacking and drain off excessive fullness..."
A friend of mine - Susan Nigro teaches fertility yoga and uses this book as one of her references.
As soon as I started reading, I felt like this book was the perfect gift for women with infertility issues. I am a counselor who works with couples with infertility concerns, and have found this work to be extremely helpful for me and for my customers. I have been recommending and encouraging all my clients to order this book. With her wise words of experience and alternative techniques she have delivered hope for anyone who is struggling to get pregnant! Here is the link for the book: http://pregnancyhours.com
