Customer Reviews

Interesting and Informative

I discovered this book while my best friend was having trouble conceiving her first child. She went through many miscarriages and was trying to find a book that spoke to both sides of dealing with a miscarriage: the medical and the emotional. I found this book and she loved it. It was exactly what she had been looking for. It has helped her deal with all the emotions of going through a miscarriage and has recommended it to several others who have been going through the same experience she has.

I highly recommend this book

This is a wonderful book. It is a perfect blend of valuable, well-explained medical information and encouraging, uplifting real-life stories of how different couples overcame a variety of fertility issues to realize their dreams of parenthood. It is very positively written and I would recommend it to anyone who is having trouble conceiving, especially if they have suffered a miscarriage.

A Must Read

If miscarriage hasn't happened to you, it's happened to someone you know. But why aren't we supposed to talk about it? This book starts a long overdue conversation about miscarriage, and covers all of the emotional and physical ground that comes with the spontaneous, grief-inducing end a pregnancy. The writing is spectacular and relateable--finally, women don't have to feel like they're alone. I'm so glad this book is here!

A Must Read!!!

This book contained a lot of information and you don't need a medical degree to understand the terminology. After 3 miscarriages, I wanted to be as informed as possible about causes and prevention because I know miscarriage is not something that "just happens". This book answered a lot of questions and made my discussions with my doctor more productive. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who has experienced even one miscarriage.

The Best Book I Have Read on Miscarriage

This is the best book I have read on miscarriage. It has helped me tremendously to deal with and understand my own miscarriages. After reading Miscarriage, Medicine, and Miracles, I have great hope and am ready to try again.
