Written by Jill and a reproductive endocrinologist, Making Babies
Jill Blakeway, L. Ac. is a New York-based fertility expert who has helped thousands of women get pregnant as naturally as possible. She has written this book for anyone trying to conceive, with the philosophy that healthy people have healthy babies. Whether you are simply thinking about starting a family or have been struggling with infertility for a while, you will benefit from her expertise.
In Making Babies, you will learn:
- foods to eat to maximize your fertility
- lifestyle choices that may enhance or hinder your chances of conceiving
- how to best time your conception attempts
The book will also guide you through an easy questionnaire that will help you identify your fertility type. The Fertility Types, which draw on the ancient wisdom of Chinese medicine, are based on the idea that people’s bodies work differently- what works for one person may not be right for your body! By determining your type, Making Babies can give you advice that is tailored to your individual needs.
The final section of the book offers an easy three-month program designed to get your body in optimal shape to conceive–think of it as “fertility boot camp,” without a scary drill sergeant. For many people, these easy to follow steps will be enough, and they will find themselves pregnant at the end of the program. For others, Making Babies offers information on common fertility obstacles, and gives suggestions on how to address them both naturally and with the support of your doctor. The book also discusses Assisted Reproductive Techniques, and provides advice on how to proceed with the help of your doctor and your acupuncturist.
