Making Babies the hard way - it is very true
I have read quite a few books on the challenge of infertility and fertility treatment and none of them capture the emotional, financial and relationship issues as well as this one does. A brilliant part talks about the unhelpful things that people say and the helpful things that people say and should be read by everyone who is touched by fertility issues amongst family and friends.
It really was like listening to my own personal dilemma's, thoughts, hopes and fears in a very real and honest way.
I am so greatful to Caroline and Bruce for having the courage to tell it like it is.

A searingly honest account of what infertility treatment really involves
This book is a 'must read' for anyone considering or having fertility treatment, and for their friends,relatives and professionals. The different treatments available and what they involve are clearly explained and very useful, but what is most relevant and graphically described was the impact of comments made by well meaning friends, family and even experts - as well as the cumulative effects of the treatment itself - on the couple's relationship. We get the 'his and hers' points of view, so it's not just an eye opener, but a real tear-jerker too.

wonderful book-highly recommended
A wonderful book. A sensitive and touching account of a couples struggle to have a family. I really felt the highs and lows,and in her honesty and beautiful story telling caroline gallop 'invites' us into her world.It is educational and informative; and the issues covered, current in a world where infertility is becoming more and more prevailent. In sharing her story Im sure Caroline Gallop will inspire and encourage many other couples experiencing a similar situation.Highly recommended,and would be a useful read for medical practioners also.
