Product Description
From one of the foremost doctors in the field and a journalist who has experienced multiple miscarriages herself comes an accessible, encouraging, and complete guide to both the causes and, more important, the prevention of miscarriage.
Though one in four American women will lose her pregnancy, with the right pre-pregnancy evaluation and ongoing care, for many women miscarriage can be prevented. During forty years of practice, Dr. Bruce Young has treated hundreds of women who experienced this heartbreaking loss and helped them bring babies to term. Now he has teamed up with one of his patients, Amy Zavatto, to write this compassionate guide that combines medical facts with insights from both the patient’s and doctor’s viewpoints. Including real-life case studies, Dr. Young provides in-depth answers to the questions: Why did this happen to me? and What can I do to prevent it next time?
Providing the most up-to-date information on physical and mental health, nutrition, and technology, here is a proactive tool and comforting resource—from an expert with real-life reasons to give every woman hope for a successful pregnancy.

mommyofprincesses October 9, 2009 J. Winters (J.C . Missouri) I really needed this book. Just when you feel all alone after having a miscarriage, this book gave me so many explanations on what could be going wrong. Too often we blame ourselves and this is a great resource to take to your doctor and get answers. My husband read it, too.
Interesting and Informative October 14, 2008 momoftwo 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I discovered this book while my best friend was having trouble conceiving her first child. She went through many miscarriages and was trying to find a book that spoke to both sides of dealing with a miscarriage: the medical and the emotional. I found this book and she loved it. It was exactly what she had been looking for. It has helped her deal with all the emotions of going through a miscarriage and has recommended it to several others who have been going through the same experience she has.
I highly recommend this book October 2, 2008 Michele L. Kahn (NY) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful book. It is a perfect blend of valuable, well-explained medical information and encouraging, uplifting real-life stories of how different couples overcame a variety of fertility issues to realize their dreams of parenthood. It is very positively written and I would recommend it to anyone who is having trouble conceiving, especially if they have suffered a miscarriage.
A Must Read September 27, 2008 A. Bryant (Brooklyn, NY) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If miscarriage hasn't happened to you, it's happened to someone you know. But why aren't we supposed to talk about it? This book starts a long overdue conversation about miscarriage, and covers all of the emotional and physical ground that comes with the spontaneous, grief-inducing end a pregnancy. The writing is spectacular and relateable--finally, women don't have to feel like they're alone. I'm so glad this book is here!
A Must Read!!! September 15, 2008 Elisha J. Harksen 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book contained a lot of information and you don't need a medical degree to understand the terminology. After 3 miscarriages, I wanted to be as informed as possible about causes and prevention because I know miscarriage is not something that "just happens". This book answered a lot of questions and made my discussions with my doctor more productive. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who has experienced even one miscarriage.
