Bitches on IVF: Two Sisters Take on Infertility

When the Universe Has Other Plans for Your Uterus There it was-a super cute, fun, Facebook post from our friend Claire, announcing how blessed she was to be pregnant. We both wanted to vomit right on top of our phones. The two of us-sisters Lauren and Lacey-had been trying to get pregnant for years without success. We are neither haters nor jealous women who can't handle other people's success. But after so many disappointing years and failed attempts to get pregnant, it was hard to feel like cheering. And thus began our story of IVF (in vitro fertilization), hormones, miscarriage, periods missed, egg harvesting, a shared surrogate, miracles, and-wait for it, we did, for far too long-motherhood. This book goes out to all the ladies whose lives are ruled by Infertility. All those ladies who may have turned just a wee bit bitchy because their lives have been relegated to blood draws and more time with their feet up in stirrups than they ever thought possible. We also wrote this book for those who.Have friends who are trying really, really hard to get pregnant-buy them this bookLike to laugh and cry at the same timeLike raw and honest true stories and don't mind a bit of swearingLike happy endingsHave dealt with any kind of infertility (this book is a MUST-read)We are two sisters who have gone through years of infertility and made it out on the other side. We are here to share our story, make you laugh and probably cry, but most importantly, make you feel like you are not alone. We both had the greatest struggles of our lives thrown at us - countless years of IVF, surrogacy, miscarriages, infant loss, and preemies - and we learned that when we shared our stories with other women going through this hell, we were able to lighten their load just a bit. For anyone going through infertility, our book will make them feel less lonely, more optimistic and will provide a renewed hope that they, too, can succeed in building their family, one way or another. Our story is one of candid honesty, bringing our most despairing moments to light and sharing those moments with a vulnerability and humor that is often not found in the world of infertility.…
