Annotation

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 Conception, and later pregnancy and birth, can be a challenging and emotional process. However, there are many choices you can control, and conception is your first opportunity to optimize your care, body, and life.#2 Before, during, and after pregnancy, society focuses on the woman's contributions and choices. However, if conception is a struggle, the blame will fall squarely on the woman's shoulders.#3 The process of conception can become stressful and obsessive, especially for women who just quit taking birth control or are going through hormonal changes. Be patient and try to keep things fun.#4 Conception and pregnancy are about stringing together the parts that feel right to you, and leaving those that don't. Before pregnancy, you should discuss your individual and shared parenting and life expectations with your partner.
