Rating: Summary: What can I say? It's a fertility Bible and more! Review: I simply cannot say enough about TCOYF. I found it to be a great guide into the workings of the female reproductive system; and learned things I never knew about how the monthly cycle really works. Topics are explained in layman's terms and I thought the book was very easy to follow. Even my husband read it!I will say that, for the most part, this book will probably be most useful for women who have fairly regular cycles and do ovulate. Women who have erratic cycles and have a hard time pinpointing ovulation even with charting may not find all the answers in this book -- but it is a great place to start.
Rating: Summary: extremely informative Review: This book is an excellent read for women who, like me, were always kept at least slightly in-the-dark about how their bodies work. Yes, I knew about the birds and the bees, but there was a lot of detail left out. This book takes care of that detail, telling you how to read and chart your body's signs -- both for the prevention of pregnancy and for the attainment of pregnancy.
Rating: Summary: It worked for me in three months. Review: After struggling with infertility for six years, I had surgery for stage 3 endometriosis (it was surprise to me that I had it). I was given the option of trying on my own for three months post surgery to get pregnant. If we did not succeed, I would be placed on Lupron and would wait one year and then have In-virto. My time was limited to 3 months as the endometriosis was growing back rapidly. I decided to do whatever it took during those three months. I bought this book. I did absolutely everything I could to increase my chances and to make sure I was timing things perfectly. I became intimately aware of what was going on with my body. Two months passed and I was sad at the prospect of failure. But 3's the charm and I am 100% convinced that if I had not read this book, I would not have my 5 month old son right now. Buy this book. It will help you understand how your body is working and arm you with information specific to your body for further discussion with your OB/GYN.
Rating: Summary: A must read Review: My husband and I have been trying for almost a year to get pregnant. I was starting to get worried that I was infertile. I checked this book out from the library and realized that we were just missing the window. It was also useful in determining my cycle. I now realize my cycle is longer than I thought. Anyway, by my third month charting I got pregnant. I will be due in March, God Willing.
Rating: Summary: It works!!! Review: After charting with her method for one month I got pregnant after trying for almost a year. It has so much information on how you body works you really get an appreciation for things you previously thought of as a nuisance. It's great I'd recommend it to anyone trying to have a baby or anyone looking for a great natural alternative to chemical birth control!
Rating: Summary: BUY THIS BOOK!!! Review: This is a book EVERY woman should have, no matter your age! This book gives you great information about what is happening with your female body. Things you have always wondered about...why am I wetter some days than others? Buy this book...you will not regret it!
Rating: Summary: What an excellent book!! A must have for all women Review: This book is amazing! I highly recommend this book to all women even if you think you understand everything about your cycle. You will learn so much from this well written and easy to understand book. Whether you use it to try to get pregnant OR to prevent a pregnancy, it is a very helpfull source of information. For those who want to prevent a pregnancy this book tells you how to monitor your cycle so that you will know when it is safe to have intercourse or NOT. For those who would like to achieve a pregnancy this is a must have!! I tried for two months and BINGO!! I believe that this book helped me to understand the chances of getting pregnant and helped optimize my chances too.
Rating: Summary: Great birth control method! Review: This book changed my life. Literally. It enabled me to get off the pill (and all its icky side effects) and understand my body's natural cycles while preventing pregnancy. We used the fertility awareness method for birth control for 14 months. The first month was a little strange but after that it worked like a dream. During that time I *never* thought I might be pregnant if my period was a day or two late (like I used to when I was on the pill -- talk about panic!) because I could tell by my body signs that there was no way I was! Then we decided it was time to have a baby, and I just found out it worked on our first month of trying! Thank you, Toni Weschler!
Rating: Summary: wonderfully empowering Review: This book is great--clear, accessible, very helpful. This book can help one acheive or avoid pregnancy, but it is just so interesting to learn about how our bodies work.
Rating: Summary: Excellent book Review: I find this is the best fertility book ever. It is easy to understand, has charts and is truthful. I learned things I had never heard before. I consult it every time I have any questions. I recommend this book if you are trying to conceive or just to learn more about your body.
