Product Description

Product Description

One in four pregnancies ends in miscarriage - it is the most common complication of pregnancy and also one of the least understood. Professor Lesley Regan is the first woman to hold a chair on obstetrics and gynaecology in the country and for the past decade she has worked to establish the biggest miscarriage clinic in the world. This book gives up-to-date information on the many causes of miscarriage and the latest treatments available. It covers the chances of a successful pregnancy, how to prepare for and cope with the next pregnancy, infertility, and gives answers to the most commonly asked questions on the subject of miscarriage. Revised and updated to take account of the latest developments in the study of miscarriage, this book is the book everyone who has ever suffered a miscarriage will need.

5.0 out of 5 stars great help at a traumatic time, 25 Feb 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Miscarriage: What Every Woman Needs to Know (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book, written with just the right tone, for anyone affected by miscarriage. It is factual, frank and totally unpatronising, yet also hopeful and written in such a way that you feel you both like and trust the author. This book has made a great difference to my state of mind in the difficult days after my second miscarriage.

5.0 out of 5 stars A helpful and sympathetic book, 30 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Miscarriage: What Every Woman Needs to Know (Paperback)
This book is written by a wonderful lady. She manages to write factually about all the different reasons for miscarriage, facts and figures etc in a very caring and sympathetic way. It was a godsend to me after my second miscarriage - it makes you realise that you are not alone and that the odds really are still in your favour in succeeding in having a "take home baby". It is particularly interesting to read of the results that her clinic have found from the "tender loving care" approach offered in early pregnancy to previous m/c sufferers - they found a much higher success rate in future pregnancys in mothers who were looked after, offered frequent early scans etc than those who didnt. Has made me a lot more informed of what I should be expecting from my GP and local maternity clinic in the future. Much more positive after reading this about the next time!

5.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent information in a sea of confusion, 18 Jan 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Miscarriage: What Every Woman Needs to Know (Paperback)
Of all the books and information I have read on miscarriage - this book is the most levelheaded and a must read when you have gone through such an emotional experience.

Like most people who seek out this book, I have recently suffered a miscarriage. As I underwent fertility treatment (ICSI) and miscarried at 6 weeks so I was keen to learn as much as I could on the subject before I tried again to try and ensure a greater chance of success. The sea of data, rather than information, on the internet left me confused, upset and extremely worried. If I followed the advice it would mean I would have to wrap myself in cotton wool for 9 months.

Lesley's book gives you the facts, backed up by the latest research in a warm and humane style. She explans all the medical terms and weaves several examples of her person experience throughout the book.

At the end of Lesley's book I came away with the knowledge that miscarriages are common, are caused by several different reasons, but it is more likely that you will be able to "bring home a live baby" when you try again than miscarry.
