DOWNLOAD EBOOKHow far would you go to have a baby? Making Babies the Hard Way is a frank account of one couple's discovery that they cannot have children of their own, and their ensuing struggle through four years of fertility treatment. One in six couples worldwide seek assistance to conceive and 80 per cent of couples undergoing fertility treatment are currently unsuccessful. Writing with humour and honesty, Caroline Gallup describes the social, emotional, spiritual and physical impact of infertility on her and her husband, Bruce, including feelings of bereavement for the absent child, the unavoidable sense of inadequacy and the day-to-day difficulties of financial pressure. As well as telling her own moving story, she also offers information and guidance for others who are infertile, or who are considering or undergoing treatment. This courageous and poignant book will be of interest to couples who cannot conceive and those who are undergoing treatment, as well as their families and friends.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'An unadulterated delight...suffused with a sense of love and very, very funny' Maggie O'Farrell It's 2004 and Anne Enright, one of Ireland's most remarkable writers, has just had two babies: a girl and a boy. Making Babies, is the intimate, engaging, and very funny record of the journey from early pregnancy to age two. Written in dispatches, typed with a sleeping baby in the room, it has the rush of good news - full of the mess, the glory, and the raw shock of it all. An antidote to the high-minded, polemical 'How-to' baby manuals, Making Babies also bears a visceral and dreamlike witness to the first years of parenthood. Anne Enright wrote the truth of it as it happened, because, for these months and years, it is impossible for a woman to lie.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAuthor Jim Burns believes the key to instiling in children a healthy, values-centered view of sexuality is to start the discussion early--being open and honest at every stage. The Pure Foundations series is already guiding parents of preteens and teens through potentially awkward conversations. Now two fully illustrated books--one for pre-readers and one for early readers--complete the series. How God Makes Babies is an age-appropriate introduction to basic sexuality, helping children ages 6 to 9 understand that God created males and females differently and with a purpose, emphasizing that God is a part of each family from conception to death.

You will lose your mind, your partner will lose theirs as well, and you will do and say things you never thought possible. You will become a different person in every way imaginable. The trick is not to lose yourself along the way and not to let anyone tell you you're not allowed to be unhappy sometimes. Being pregnant will mess you up. But no one ever (honestly) earned anything worthwhile the easy way." In this, the information age, it is surprising to me that there is so little "information" about something as complicated and commonplace as pregnancy. When I became pregnant, I looked everywhere for a single good source of information that would answer my basic questions and help me to understand what was going on with all this craziness. There was nothing. Even in the medical literature, there was a definite lack of research and consensus. I decided to do the job myself, for my own information- and now for yours. Dr. B
