THE TRYING GAME: GET THROUGH FERTILITY TREATMENT AND GET PREGNANT WITHOUT LOSING YOUR MIND
Book ID/图书代码： 01240019C00019
English Summary/英文概要： From the author of the Fertility Diary series from the New York Times’ Motherlode blog comes a girlfriend’s guide to both the emotional and technical process of trying to get pregnant, written with the smarts, warmth, and honesty of someone who has been in the trenches.
There are so many ways for women to be Not Pregnant: You can be young and have endometriosis or older and not have enough eggs; your partner might have slow sperm (don’t tell him that, though), or you may not have a partner involved at all. Or maybe there’s nothing wrong except for the fact that you are Just. Not. Pregnant.
Amy Klein has been there. From starting off optimistic about her own fertility to becoming someone who quickly got a med school-like education in reproductive endocrinology, she’s had nine rounds of IVF, four miscarriages, three acupuncturists, two rabbis, an amazing reproductive immunologist, and finally...one real, live baby. And she wrote about it all for the New York Times Motherlode blog in her "Fertility Diary" column that ran for three years.
Now, Amy has written the book she wishes she’d had when she was Not Pregnant. With advice from medical experts as well as stories from real women, she outlines your options every step of the way, telling you all the questions you should ask, and even offering suggestions on how to tell your busybody mother-in-law to mind her own beeswax. In this comprehensive roadmap to every single aspect of infertility, you’ll find topics such as:
• Mind/Body/Soul/Baby: Is the Alternative Route for Me?
• IVF: What to Expect on Your First Cycle
• Busybodies, Bosses, Frenemies & Family: How to Talk About Your Situation
• Thoughtful tips, helpful charts, and more!
Empowering, compassionate, and down-to-earth, The Trying Game will show you what to expect when you’re not expecting with heart and humanity when you need it the most.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《纽约时报》Motherlode博客的“生育日记”的作者，以一个居家女人的智慧、温暖和诚实，为我们提供了一份可靠、严肃的指南，既介绍了想要怀孕的情感和实际过程。
“一部富有同情心的，充满风趣的，通过精心研究的，和最具权威性的孕期指南。”—Lori Gottlieb,《纽约时报》畅销书《也许你应该找个人谈谈》(Maybe You Should Talk to Someone)的作者
有很多方法可以导致不孕：你可以是年轻的，年老的，有伴侣的，或者没有伴侣的。也许你患有子宫内膜异位症。也许你没有足够的卵子或者你的伴侣没有足够的精子。或者也许你就是没有怀孕。
本书的作者艾米·克莱恩(Amy Klein)也曾经历过这些。面对生育障碍，她很快成为了专家。经过九轮试管受精、四次流产、三名针灸师、两名拉比和一名生殖免疫学家的努力，她终于当上了母亲。而她在《纽约时报》Motherlode博客的“生育日记”(Fertility Diary)专栏中把这一切都记录了下来。
现在，艾米写了一本她希望自己在怀孕时就能读到的指南书。在医学专家和真正的女性的建议下，她概述了你每一步的选择，从你应该问的问题到如何让你的婆母注意她自己的心事。在这张全面的不孕不育路线图中，你会发现以下主题:
• 是否需要冷冻你的卵子
• 寻找(能负担得起的)诊所
• 在你的第一个试管受精周期中会发生什么
• 羡慕别家娃，也就是你可以不用给朋友不参加朋友的聚会
• 不用去担心替代疗法——针灸、草药、补品——是否适合你
• 有帮助的提示，图表，和更多相关信息!
富有权威性的，同情心的，和切合实际的，当你最需要的时候，《尝试游戏》(The Trying Game)将向你展示什么是值得期待的。(Sandy)
