I ordered it (finally!) and it came in the mail today.. Can't wait to start reading and figure out what I am doing wrong.  :)

    I had a hold request for that book at the library so I could try it out before buying it, but now it seems all the copies are missing? Kind of wierd...anyway, I'm also thinking about going ahead and buying it so I'd like to know what you think.

    I was really happy I read that book -- I'll be interested to hear your impressions.  I wish I had read it two or three years ago!

    You will love it!  I gave my copy to a coworker who is now pregnant; I hope she gives it back.

    I bought it on Amazon because it was on sale ($15ish if I remember correctly) and it is a BIG book!  I have not had a chance to crack it open yet but as soon as I read it I will let you all know what I think.  :)

    I love that book! I borrowed it from a friend of mine and she didn't need it any more so I got to keep it. I keep it at my bedside like a second Bible! LOL!

    I have to admit that I have not bought this book. I went to B&N last year and sat down to browse through it and it completely overwhelmed me and freaked me out and I put it back on the shelf and bought The Everything Fertility Handbook or something like that. It's been a long time since I have looked at it and I have been planning to reaquaint myself with it again this weekend.

    Maybe after a year of trying TCOYF won't scare me as much as it did. I can't explain why that happened, that is not a normal reaction for me.

    TTC since 3/2010. Me 41, DH-49. After 3 years, 6 IUIs and several IVFs we have finally have our beautiful baby girl, born on 11/7/13.

    I read the 1st 50 pages last night right before bed.  Dh was amused with the whole idea of the book, but also very supportive.  So far I feel like I have not learned anything new (if I had read it before joining this group that would NOT have been the case-you all have taught me SO much!) but I will keep reading in the hopes that some little bit of information will help me on my quest.  :)

    I bought this last year and it was a real eye opener at the time but I can see how everything in it if you have been trying for awhile you would know.  Great book though !
