About this work

Description

"When a couple has trouble conceiving, emotional factors can often be at play. While stress is a well-known factor affecting fertility, other more subtle issues can play a major role - such as unresolved fears about becoming a parent, childhood traumas, supressed emotions, self-esteem issues and relationship difficulties. Trying to Conceive tells fifteen real-life stories of women and men who were able to conceive only after they had taken a more holistic approach to pregnancy and resolved the emotional issues underlying their fertility. Compelling, uplifting and often humorous, each of the fifteen case studies is complex and unique, revealing the need for individual solutions for each couple."--From cover.
