Description
"Comforting and intimate, this "girlfriend" guide to getting pregnant gets to the heart of all the emotional issues around having children--biological pressure, in-law pressures, greater social pressures--to support women who are considering getting pregnant.The Impatient Woman's Guide to Getting Pregnant is a complete guide to getting pregnant--the medical, psychological, social, and sexual aspects, told in a straight-forward, funny, and compassionate manner, like talking to a good friend who's been through it all. Jean Twenge covers everything you'll be wondering about and advises what you can do at home, before getting a doctor involved.Twenge explains how to prepare mentally and physically when thinking about having a child, how to talk about it with family, friends, and your partner, how to know when you're ovulating, and when best to have sex, how to tilt the odds toward having a boy or a girl, how to handle the great sadness of a miscarriage, and what to do when you do get pregnant.Trying to conceive often involves an enormous amount of emotion, from anxiety and utter disappointment to hope and joy. With comfort, humor, and straightforward advice, The Impatient Woman's Guide to Getting Pregnant is the bedside companion to help you through it"--,Provided by publisher.
