Summary: Signs of Fertitlity - Second Edition
Review: A MUST FOR ALL WHO ARE INTERESTED IN OR WHO ARE PRESENTLY PRACTICING NATURAL FAMILY PLANNING! A tremendous amount of research went into this little book. Although it is directed toward those interested in birth control, there's too much information here for those seeking to achieve pregnancy to ignore. It explains more than one method of Natural Family Planning and suggests using them together for a higher success rate in birth control or in achieving pregnancy. The beginning of this book is hard because of the scientific wording. It teaches you exactly what is happening with your body. If you can make it through the difficult but short first chapters, the center of the book is an absolute GOLD MINE! I highly recommend it to all women whether you are looking to achieve pregnancy, practice birth control, or are premonopausal. However, if you are just beginning to learn Natural Family Planning, this book will not stand alone. I strongly urge you to buy more than one book, no matter what book you buy. It is too important. Add this one to your list and you won't be sorry.

Review: I have been using NFP for a year now and am always looking for information to make me more educated on the subject. I sought this book to round out my education. For my purposes, it does serve me but this is not a book to be used for beginners, wanting to learn how to do Natural Family Planning/Natural Birth Control. This book is definitely towards birth control--as the title states--so I would not recommend it for those trying to learn how to achieve pregancy necessarily. I also would not recommend this book for those going off of the pill--it gives only a paragraph of information about that. This book is very good at giving biology and can be helpful in giving slightly different wording for helping someone to learn the signs of fertility. The author basically uses the Thermal Method of NFP and uses the other portions of NFP--cervix, mucus-- as secondary signs. If for some reason you can't do your temperature or want to use the sympto method, this is not the book for you.

Review: This is the first book that I read on NFP and it served to be the most informative and useful. Before reading the book I had only heard of the famous rhythm method. This book opened a door to many different signs that a women can use to tell when she is fertile. I have used these signs (along with prayer) to GET pregnant (so I don't understand the other reveiwer).I would happily recommend this book to anyone wanting to conceive as well as those that want a safe way to prevent conception.
