I’m glad you’ve found me and my books, but I’m sorry you are needing to find support and help as you deal with your journey to parenthood. I absolutely know what you are going through, as I have been there – for six long years – and although it was a few years ago, the emotional feelings I had then are the same as you, and others, are having now. The science around infertility and fertility treatments advances quickly, but our thoughts and feelings towards wanting a baby and a family are the same now as they were centuries ago. And it’s heart breaking and so very unfair. The one big, positive difference, is that today people are more willing to be open and to share about how it was for them, so that you don’t feel alone and lonely.

I’m passionate about helping you, which is why I’ve published my This is series of books, which are chock full of short, relevant stories from women and men who have also dealt with, or are still dealing with, infertility, fertility treatments, and the two-week wait. More books will be added to the series – miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy and baby loss, pregnancy after infertility and loss, donor conception, and male factor infertility – so please do check back regularly. If you would like to share your experience in one of the future books, please feel free to contact me via the ‘Contact’ form to find out more. Thank you.

Also, if you sign up for my FREE ebook The Best Fertility Jargon Buster here (link to the book), you can join my newsletter, (I won’t bombard you with emails and you can unsubscribe at any time), where I share more about all things infertility.

Being an author, it’ll come as no surprise that I LOVE reading, and there are some must-read books on the many subjects surrounding infertility – mindset, nutrition, holistic medicine and memoires; as well as grief and loss – be it embryo’s not developing, embryo’s not sticking, early miscarriage, late miscarriage and baby loss. So I’ll soon be recording, some short book review videos, which I hope will help you wherever you are on your journey.

And please check out the ‘Furbaby Gallery’ for some cute kitten/cat, puppy/dog etc photos, and to read how others find a furbaby helps them deal with the frustration, helplessness, and depression that accompanies infertility. Do you have a furbaby, or did you have a furbaby who has sadly left to go to pet heaven? I would love to share your furbaby with everyone else, then they, and you, will be supporting the TTC (trying to conceive) community.

My very best wishes
