I wish I had this book when I began my journey with infertility. Even as I'm still healing from pregnancy loss, this book has helped me cope with many emotions I've been feeling recently. Keegan writes in an inclusive, detailed, and simple style for anyone to follow. In many cases, it feels as if you are right there with him and Olivia as they are going through their experiences with infertility, IVF, pregnancy loss, and more!
I highly recommend this book to anyone going through infertility, even if you aren't going through IVF. And even if you are looking to support a friend or family member going through infertility, this book can guide you on supporting and validating their physical and emotional needs.

Really recommended
I searched for books for dads going through the IVF process and the results were pretty slim. This book came up and I found it really useful to read up on things, become more knowledgeable about the process and hopefully help to support my wife as much as I can. Thank you!

Dad Going through the struggle
This was a great read. My wife and I have been struggling with “unexplained” infertility. There are a lot of resources for females going through this struggle but very little for the men. This book gives a great viewpoint and makes me feel less alone during this long journey.

This was a really helpful book as a husband going through IVF with my wife. It blended the authors personal journey with his wife plus the current science and state of play for IVF in the USA. The science and procedures do evolve rapidly so at some point a new IVF dad will have to rise up and write a revised edition!!

There’s not a lot out there for future fathers when it comes to baby-planning books; there’s even less when it comes to future fathers in the IVF process. Very thankful that this helpful account is out there, will recommend to anyone else in my life who goes through something similar.
