Book excerpt: In vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment is a complex process that can involve multiple medical teams and points of contact, and it is a significant financial investment. The cost for treatment includes numerous medications, appointments, daily tests, and procedures. Predictably, IVF is the theme of endless books, websites, blog posts, and articles. Based on her personal experiences with IVF, author Monica Bivas created this journal to help you organize the process, handle stress better, and bring focus and clarity to your personal IVF journey. She created The IVF Planner both as an information guide and for you to write your own story. She touches on everything from the basics of the process to financing to a support network and more. Bivas communicates that the IVF journey, no matter the end result—negative, positive, or even cancelled cycles—takes strength, takes courage, and teaches you to be disciplined. Though expensive and challenging, it’s a journey to be proud of.

There's the medical nitty gritty: getting a diagnosis (or not); selecting a fertility clinic that's right for you; understanding IUI and IVF and genetic testing; a comprehensive list of medications and their side effects, and much more. There are emotional high and lows: staying hopeful while managing grief and depression, maintaining and strengthening your relationship, and navigating religious and ethical concerns. And then there is the practical and often complicated questions around affording treatments, dealing with your workplace (including the military), and everything you need to know about insurance and fertility treatments. Stronger Than Infertility breaks down complicated clinical information and expert medical advice from top specialists in the field. The book includes first-person stories and hard-won advice from women who have been down this long and often painful road (Huhman included) and offers a clear-eyed look at the emotional and psychological landmines that come with the journey. The result is a book that inspires as much as it educates and is a much-needed source of support and inspiration for readers hungry for understanding and hope.

Book excerpt: Do you feel worn out, misunderstood, or forgotten on your journey of trying to conceive? Do you feel confused as you wrestle with God’s will and plan for your family? Do you question whether your faith is not big enough or if you’re even praying the right prayers? In Not Forgotten, Laura C. Brandenburg invites you to see your story through the lens of nine barren women in the Bible. Along with familiar names like Sarah, Hannah, and Elizabeth, Laura draws us deeper into Scripture to see unnamed women like the Shunammite woman and Samson’s mother. Through each testimony, Laura unravels five characteristics that demonstrate the heart of God. You’ll be equipped with several powerful tools: • How to cultivate a heart of faith. • How to gain a better understanding of God’s character. • How to overcome feelings of inadequacy or faithlessness. • How to trust God with your deepest desires. Pulling from her own nine-year journey with infertility, Laura writes with compassion and understanding as she encourages readers to dig deeper into the Bible and to stand on the truth of God’s character.

Download or read book No One to Call Me Mommy A Journey of Hope and Healing Through the Pain of Infertility written by Debra Busetti and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-02-09 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Girls grow up wanting to be mothers. From a very early age, we play and pretend with our dolls. In teenage years, we practice mothering skills while we babysit. Motherhood is one of the crowning glories of being a woman. But what if it doesn't happen for you? You never hear the words, "You're pregnant" or feel life inside of you, and infertility moves in. Infertility is a life-questioning event. It invades the physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual being of a woman. Women who face it tend to crawl into a protective, isolative shell. No One to Call Me Mommy provides companionship, strength, and a voice to break through that isolation. It is not a book about infertility; it is a book about hope and healing through the journey.
