Product Description

Synopsis
You may be lucky and conceive at your first try but human fertility is relatively inefficient and there is no guarantee you'll succeed even after lots of attempts. Having a baby and ensuring that he or she has the best start in life requires careful planning, which needs to start well in advance of conception. Fertility & Conception tells future parents everything they need to know and do in order to embark on the great adventure of pregnancy and parenthood. It contains all the latest information on every facet of preconception care, as well as showing you how conception works, how to interpret your fertility signals to increase your chances of getting pregnant, and the best ways to safeguard your reproductive health throughout your life. It also offers up-to-date advice and self-help tips on diet, vitamins, exercise, and lifestyle and, finally, counsels on what to do if pregnancy isn't happening as one in six couples seek specialist help. With its comprehensive coverage and friendly approach, Fertility & Conception is an invaluable resource for anyone planning a family.

- Everything you need to know to maximize your chances of getting pregnant - Up-to-date advice on managing contraception and other lifestyle factors (diet, general health, fitness, smoking...) that may affect your fertility - Choice of conventional and more natural therapies for boosting fertility and overcoming problems - Includes an action plan for future parents to follow during the three months prior to conception - Special features include: looking ahead to pregnancy, tips and hints, case studies, discussion points for talking through sensitive issues with your partner - Infertility treatments explained - Sensitively written by an expert in natural family planning methods

5.0 out of 5 stars Re-assuring and easy to read, 15 Aug 2003
By A Customer
I found this book very imformative and easy to read, and it answers all those silly little questions about conception and fertility that some other books don't address.
Having read another book on this subject before this one, I found this very book re-assuring, instead of focusing on all the things that could be wrong, it gives a positive outlook on achieving a pregnancy and it has people's own stories which are very encouraging!
I would recommend this book to anyone that is planning to try for a baby, or for someone who is doing so at the moment with little success!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fertility and Conception by Karen Trewinnard, 3 Dec 2003
By A Customer
My husband and I finally decided after 4 years of marriage to start trying for a baby. I came off the pill after several years and thought it would just happen over night.Of course in reality things aren't so simple. It took 11 months for my periods to return and after several doctor's appointments and scans to check all was well, I decided to take the positive approach and get to know my own body by buying a Fertility book. How glad I was when the following month I discovered that I was pregnant! A simple and very informative guide to your own fertility. Thanks!

5.0 out of 5 stars very clear and pratical, 14 Feb 2006
We found this a very clear and practical book. It helps you understand how the whole process works and explains the things you can do to help.
It is very comprehensive and I think very reassuring, I would certainly recommend it for everyone thinking of starting a family.
