Open any magazine these days and you’ll find photos of a blissful older mother or a midlife celeb snuggling their new bundle of joy. Unfortunately, these articles often don’t showcase the truth about later-in-life pregnancy. They bypass the tremendous amount of financial, emotional, and physical effort that couples who are having trouble conceiving go through. In this warm, funny, empathetic book, journalist Julie Vargo and literary agent Maureen Regan — women who have personally experienced almost every aspect of infertility — give the lowdown on what women really need to know. Want to know the real scoop on hormonal havoc, fertility drug fiascos, sperm counts, ovarian lining, cervical mucus and how much this whole fertility thing can cost financially, physically and emotionally? The chicks tell all — all the things your doctor doesn’t tell you and your mom probably doesn’t know are discussed in this book in the way only good girlfriends can dish.

Ladies, this is not an add, just thought some of you might want to see a good book to buy. I've bought it, and although it does discuss a lot of "advanced maternal age" conception issues, and I'm in my 20's, it's very good! Funny, endearing. I wanted to recommend it to all of you because if you're like me, you need someone to tell you it's okay to be mad when other women you know accidentally get pregnant, and it's okay to feel guilty that you can't quick order up a baby at the request of a spouse or loved one. And in this book, I found myself laughing and nodding a lot; crying in agreeance and re-reading things to convince myself it really IS OK to feel that way, and know I'm not the first or the last person to have those feelings.
Thanks ladies just thought I'd share my good find!
GL and BD to all who are in the TTC adventure with me!

I bought this book last year and loved it. Very funny and lots of practical knowledge.
