It's two books in one, a book of advice for women and a survival guide for men, each chapter mirrored but with very different experience and advice. IVF is terrifying, awful and extraordinary in equal measures for both partners.

It is an invaluable guide from both perspectives on how to get through the process in one piece.

Reviews:

I wish this book had been around when we were starting IVF. It brilliantly takes the mystery out of IVF, it's a must read if you are about to embark on the journey.

― Gabby Logan

This is an essential read for all couples embarking on any fertility investigation or treatment and should be in every fertility waiting room.
