Each month I share some of the newly-published and soon-to-be-released books about infertility, family building, and related emotional, spiritual, or physical issues. I haven’t read any of them yet, so I’m not necessarily recommending them, but just letting you know what’s newly available. Please note that these links are affiliate links.
Feed Your Fertility: Your Guide to Cultivating a Healthy Pregnancy with Chinese Medicine, Real Food, and Holistic Living by Emily Bartlett and Laura Erlich. This is a best-selling new release in Amazon’s Fertility section. I’m always interested in learning about eating healthier and using Chinese medicine to improve fertility.
For Those with Empty Arms: A Compassionate Voice For Those Experiencing Infertility by Emily Harris Adams. According to Amazon’s description, this is a book of poetry and personal stories offering empathy to those experiencing infertility.
Infertility Insanity: When Sheer Hope (and Google) are the Only Options Left by Julie Selby. Amazon describes it as Selby’s story of surviving infertility, from the traditional to the bizarre.
Savor: Living Abundantly Where You Are, As You Are by Shauna Niequist. Okay, so this isn’t a book on infertility, but the title really speaks to me. Infertility has a tendency to make us always look toward tomorrow and the future, so sometimes I need help being content in the present moment. I’ve read Niequist’s other books and loved them, and I’m willing to bet this one is a winner, too.
I Tried Until I Almost Died: From Anxiety and Frustration to Rest and Relaxation by Sandra McCollum. Here’s another one where the title wins me over. Anyone who’s been through infertility knows that it feels like when all the “trying” has left them nearly dead.
Healing for Damaged Emotions by David A. Seamands. This is a new edition of the classic work. I think it might be useful for those of us dealing with the emotional aspects of infertility. There’s also a workbook edition available.
Thank you for the dear blessing you are to this community, Lisa. Your positive encouragement is such an inspiration! Keep up the great work. You are so loved and appreciated!
Thank you, Cheryl! Ditto to you!
There are definitely way more books about infertility than I realized!
I didn’t realize there were so many infertility books out there. I think if I tried reading them all my mind would be consumed with it :/
Ha, yes, I don’t recommend reading them ALL! I just like to share what’s available so people can see if one sparks their interest!
I’m new to your blog. Thank you for the above mentioned books. I didn’t realize how many of them were out there. Not sure if you’ve read It Starts with the Egg by Rebecca Fett. How the Science of Egg Quality Can Help You Get Pregnant Naturally, Prevent Miscarriage, and Improve Your Odds in IVF. It may be a good read for your followers. I found helpful information out of it.
Hi Diane, welcome to the blog! I have read “It Starts With the Egg” and found it to be really education and easy-to-read. I definitely recommend it. Thanks for mentioning it here.
Interesting….I didn’t know so many were coming out each month/quarter. Infertility Insanity looks like a book I would pick up for obvious reasons 🙂
I love when you share new book ideas! I’m sending this link to my Infertile Myrtles group.
