Since telling the story of her own fertility journey in Dare to Dream , Izzy Judd has been contacted by hundreds of women wanting to share their own experiences. Izzy's greatest wish is to get people talking about the issues surrounding fertility and for them to find comfort in the knowledge that they are not alone.
As Izzy herself 'Going through any kind of fertility-related struggle or the loss of a baby can be such a lonely and isolating time and I know it can really help to know that there are other couples out there sharing the same experiences and emotions as you are ... it is for this reason that I decided to put together a collection of your stories into this free ebook so that as many people as possible can share them and hopefully find comfort and support in reading about the experiences of others who are on their fertility journeys.'
Izzy Judd was born into a musical family in 1984. She studied the violin first at Chethams School of Music and then The Royal Academy of Music. She was a member of electric string quartet Escala, who took part in Britain's Got Talent in 2008 and went on to release a top-ten album with Simon Cowell's label SYCO. Izzy met Harry Judd on McFly's Wonderland tour in 2005 and they married in 2012. Izzy is now a full-time mum to their daughter Lola.
As a lifelong McFly fan I have started to read the guys and their wives books at long last.
Izzy has a story like mine, diagnosed with PCOS only she recalls her struggles to become pregnant while I'm not there to try yet!
This mini book brings together other readers and band fans writing their struggle and story down in this little book to share around to help other women to know they're not alone and the struggle to become pregnant can effect any one of us in differing ways. I personally relate to a lot of the stories knowing couples still trying IVF after failed rounds, couples easily fell pregnancy and in my situation expecting to need IVF due to PCOS health issues this was an open and informative book dealing with the subject sensitively.
I know some people who tried very hard to be pregnant, some of them have children now, some of them not yet. I don't know how can I support them .. I always prey for them though. It's good to read about other people stories although it's heart breaking. I believe this book help people, who don't face any problems to get pregnant, to be more sensitive and understandable to those who seek to be parents. This book also is a reminder to all of us to not minimize other people problems just because we didn't go through what they going through.
God .. for all those who still struggling, give them the patience to preservers and the hope to keep going.
Currently going through infertility after trying with what feels like forever 2 failed rounds of IVF with immature eggs both times finding out afterwards stage 4 endo surgery now trying again naturally and seeing where that takes us
This was a very interesting read. It is great to see everyone's happy results in these stories, but it is also so nice to see these common issues being spoken about. A great short read.
