From the author of the New York Times "Fertility Diary" column comes a girlfriend's guide to both the emotional and technical process of trying to get pregnant, written with the smarts, warmth, and honesty of someone who has been in the trenches.
Amy Klein wrote the "Fertility Diary" column for The New York Times's Motherlode blog for three years. She writes frequently about health and fertility for publications such as Newsweek, Slate, The Washington Post, and others.
“Infertility can be incredibly difficult to navigate emotionally
and physically. As an IVF veteran, Amy Klein does an exceptional
job of tapping into the emotional aspects of the infertility
journey while also providing readers with helpful information about
various fertility treatments from medical experts.”—William
Schoolcraft, MD, founder and medical director of CCRM Fertility
“I believe every woman doing fertility treatments needs her Amy
Klein. Find yours! It’s too scary and confusing to go it
alone.”—Alyssa Shelasky, The Cut
“Amy Klein’s The Trying Game is just what our fertility community
needs right now. Unlike other fertility books, this is a real book
for the real woman, written by a woman who has been there before.
I’m thrilled to be able to provide this as a resource to my
patients.”—Natalie Crawford, MD, MSCR, As a Woman podcast
“Amy Klein’s writing on fertility is candid, warm, and honest. She
pulls no punches, and the result isn’t just informative—it’s
empowering. If you’re struggling to create the family you imagined,
Amy’s is the voice you want in your head, and your heart.”—KJ
Dell’Antonia, former editor of the New York Times Motherlode blog
and author of How to Be a Happier Parent
