So began their adventure into IVF, via blood tests, sperm tests, injections and probes, becoming involuntary experts on embryology through failure, despair, persistence and success. After 4 years, 3 different clinics, 2 positive pregnancy tests and 1 miscarriage, they finally had a successful pregnancy. GET A LIFE is the perfect down-to- earth guide for anyone thinking of embarking on fertility treatment. It's two books in one, a book of advice for women and a survival guide for men, each chapter mirrored but with very different experience and advice. IVF is terrifying, awful and extraordinary in equal measures for both partners. 650 0 Human reproductive technology|vPopular works. 650 0 Infertility|xPsychological aspects|vPopular works. 650 0 Fertilization in vitro, Human|xPsychological aspects |vPopular works. 700 1 Bray, Rosie,|eauthor.
