Acerca de esta escucha

Trying to get pregnant is enough to make any woman impatient. The Impatient Woman's Guide to Getting Pregnant is a complete guide to the medical, psychological, social, and sexual aspects of getting pregnant, told in a funny, compassionate way, like talking to a good friend who's been through it all. And in fact Dr. Jean Twenge has been through it all - the mother of three young children, she started researching fertility when trying to conceive for the first time.

A renowned sociologist, Dr. Twenge brought her research background to the information that she encountered online, from family and friends, and in books and decided to go into the latest studies to find out the real story. The good news is there is a lot less to worry about than you've been led to believe. Dr. Twenge gets to the heart of the emotional issues around getting pregnant, including how to prepare mentally and physically when thinking about conceiving; how to talk about it with family, friends, and your partner; and how to handle the great sadness of a miscarriage. Also covered is how to know when you're ovulating, when to have sex, timing your pregnancy, maximizing your chances of getting pregnant, how to tilt the odds toward having a boy or a girl, and the best prenatal diet.

Also love the narrator, it was like hearing it from your girlfriend.

To the point for us Impatient Women.

I love that the author is realistic and is HUMAN. She explains why you might feel the way you do, she explains why things might happen, and she shares her own personal experiences (instead of a male doctor telling you its "normal to feel that way"). The absolute best parts of this book is that the author researches well known studies and finds that they are false or from the 17th century (far outdated for today's technology), and explains things in a way that a non-medical personale would be able to understand. I would recommend this book to everyone, including my close family and friends.

Great book that is very helpful.

Not going to lie—the most funny lines are in the sample, but the author was relatable and there was good information.
I would argue some small details about nutrition, but the author acknowledges that there are lots of different and changing opinions, so I’m not holding it against her. I would just recommend further research, yourself. Personally, I’m more into animal fats and red meats and less into greens, but you’ll have to research it, yourself.

Good primer, relatable

I liked the book as the author provided a lot of information based on research, not traditional belief. I would imagine many ladies who read this book is eager to be pregnant, so am I, but the author makes me comfort as I feel more comfortable when I have information than being panicking with my guess...good book to be strategic!

Very good information based on statistical figures

This is the perfect book for A-type information sponges that are looking to prepare to get pregnant. We don't like to wait, we plan.

Funny, well organized and super informative.

The 1st several chapters are the strongest in the book. In the book. I largely enjoyed them and and took the information to heart.. Somewhere in the middle of the book, I found myself wondering where the author was going and started skipping chapters when I heard familiar lines. The last few chapters of the book are all appendicities. 2 of them I found so useful that I bookmarked for later. Most of them I found somewhat irrelevant. All in all, I found about half the book very informative. The other half of the book, I skipped entirely.

Sometimes the tone of the book made me chuckle. But especially towards the end of the book, it felt like the author was just taking pot-shots at men and conservative modern medical treatment. She could have handled more in a scientific tone and referred to more research, in my opinion. I found her opinions on C-Sections and IVF not only unnecessary, but potentially toxic, as we don't choose our lots in life, and could turn women away from avenues that are helpful to them.

Factual but sometimes opinionated and repetitive

This book has a lot of information that is helpful and is written and performed in a way that keeps everything in perspective and makes you laugh and keeps it lighthearted.

Hilarious but helpful

Short, sweet and very much to the point. Honest about the facts vs the myths and sprinkled with some humor, this book helped so much. I would recommend it to everyone, even those who are not necessarily impatient. Pack with info every woman trying to have a baby should know.

Exactly what I needed

I love this book! Full of great facts and the list of references at the end definitely makes me feel like the author did her homework and can be trusted. The book is full of facts and figures, and after listening to about an hour I went and bought a hard copy instead. 1. So it would be easier to look up facts and figures at a fixture date and 2 so I could share with my husband.

I understand the author was trying to add a little humour into the mix, which did keep it on the lighter side of reading, but in doing so I found she made some large generalizations of the male population that I found bothersome at times. If we keep talking about how men do nothing around the house and need reminders to participate in our relationships with them, we put them at a different level and we're no longer equals and partners.

Better as a book

There’s some helpful tips in here but the tone, anecdotes and jokes are so bad I’m slightly embarrassed to be reading it. I stuck through it but I wouldn’t recommend it.

Helpful but cringey
