Unsung Lullabies - forget the authors names.

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!

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.
