good book

not tons and tons of info, most is basic stuff you probably already know if you've been trying for more than a year. but I like the Christian perspective; I felt it was a very good book.


Are these feelings normal?

I was so encouraged to read this book! After dealing with infertility for several years, I was beginning to wonder if the feelings that I had been experiencing were normal or if I was just way out of it. I was so relieved to hear a medical and spiritual perspective that made me cry from relief at times, knowing that others have also walked through this very difficult valley - and that God is sufficient to bring me through as well. I HIGHLY recommend this book for anyone struggling with any aspect of infertility. From living child-free to answering questions about medical treatments, to adoption how-to's, this book was worth its weight in gold!

Very helpful during a sad time

I purchased this book after experiencing 5 years of infertility. My husband and I were at a crossroads about whether or not to consider adoption or try IVF, after having tried everything else to get pregnant with no success. This book led me to do a lot of soul searching about what was really important in my life, and what my actual goals were. I attribute my reading this book to helping me to view my issues with infertility more clearly (and get past the constant sadness). Needless to say, I now have a beautiful 2-year old boy, and am loving motherhood.

Must read!

I so wish I had gotten this book when we found out we were facing infertility, instead of a year into the process. It has helped me to replace my panic with peace.


Much Needed Encouragement in this Area!!!

Sandra Glahn and Dr. William Cutrer have written a "Christian guide" to the practical, moral, marital, and spiritual challenges of infertility, and as such, it has brought my family some well-deserved help in this area.

The books brings solid facts, detailed information, and a message of encouragement to infertile couples, and those who work with them, along with answers to questions they ask most often. Some of those questions we have asked, such as:
-Should we consider high-tech fertility treatments?
-What about donor insemination? Donor eggs?
-How do we respond to nosy friends and relatives?
-Where can we go for the best advice?
-How can God allow this to happen?

And there are other questions which you may find in your search for answers. There are 16 chapters of great information, and an appendix at the end for more information to seek out. This is a great resource!!!

There's good news for couples who have been diagnosed as infertile; more than half of them will eventually conceive a child. One in six Americans of childbearing age experiences infertility problems-typically causing stress, sexual difficulties, marital discord, and a disturbing uncertainty about the future.This book focuses on building an attitude of hope and optimism.
