I think its kind of crappy title, but the content is really good and very thought-provoking. Its all about the pschological roller-coaster associated with infertility for women and men and why its such a traumatic experience for both genders. Then it goes into ways to make the whole thing a healthier experience. Its not too long, (I read on the weekend) and its written by three psychiatrists who dealt with infertility themselves and who have made it their professional focus. I've asked David to read it as well. Its really thought-provoking.
I recommend it. You can get used copies on Amazon.com for really cheap. I think I paid 50c for mine.
Anyone else read anything helpful that they would recommend?
Sounds interesting! I've never read it (not much of a reader), but it definitely sounds interesting!

Thank you brie_91 for this fabulous siggy!!
Our TTC journey: 6 cycles Clomid, lap surgery/ D&C, IUI, 2 x IVF; 33 cycles- BFN.
IVF#1 (March 2010) Transferred two 8-cell grade A (perfect) embies- BFN and heartbroken.
IVF#2/FET#1 (Jan/Feb 2011):Transferred two (7&8 cell) grade A (PERFECT) embies- BFN again.
March 2011- February 2012: On BCP due to endometriosis.
March 2012- taking a few months off of BCP and we are TTC naturally.
We will re-evaluate another IVF w/FET try in 2013.
No I haven't. I did read a book written by three friends that dealt with infertility and their roller coaster ride. It was something like the Infertility Diaries or something like that.
