ONE GOOD EGG
Book ID/图书代码： 04160009B32410
English Summary/英文概要： For the first 23 years of her life, Suzy Becker was sure she would have at least two babies. Then, it took her fifteen more years to decide to go ahead and have just one. One Good Egg is the funny, warmhearted story of her journey to fertility and becoming a mom, illustrated throughout with hundreds of her clever and charming cartoons.Suzy Becker had found professional success in her twenties, but the husband market was a different story. She started off by falling in love with a woman, but when that didn’t work out she decided she had everything she needed--the home, the savings, the friends, family, and the gumption--to have a baby alone. At age thirty-nine, she joined the ranks of the 6 million women who need medical help to conceive. In One Good Egg, she chronicles her travels through the maze of fertility treatments, constantly considering and reconsidering how far she was willing to go, inwardly convinced none of it would ever work. She learned she was pregnant on her way to tape an essay for National Public Radio, and five months later married her true love. You cannot adequately prepare for certain realities, like giving birth or parenthood, but with One Good Egg, Suzy Becker provides the perfect companion for readers’ own journeys to motherhood and beyond.
