Description

Take control of your fertility—whether you’re just starting your fertility journey, struggling to get or stay pregnant, or seeking to maximize your chances with IVF—with this proven, food-first approach

If you’re struggling to conceive, the last thing you want is vague advice—you need real answers and a plan of action.

That’s where this book comes in. No matter what obstacles you’re facing in your journey to parenthood, it will help you shorten your time to pregnancy, avoid costly fertility treatments, and if IVF is necessary, increase the odds that it works. Its powerful, yet simple strategies have already helped thousands of women struggling with infertility finally achieve their dream of having a baby.

Infertility can stem from a number of challenges: PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, egg quality, low sperm count, and more. But you can impact all of these conditions with one key shift: changing your diet.

In this practical, step-by-step blueprint, fertility specialist Angela Thyer, MD, and reproductive health nutritionist Judy Simon, RDN, share:

  • The compelling research on how food supports fertility
  • What to eat more of and less of to support conception and healthy pregnancy
  • Skills and manageable goals to make changing your diet easy
  • A six-week plan for implementing dietary and lifestyle changes
  • Plus, two weeks of sample recipes to help guide your journey

As the many women Judy and Angela have helped can attest, the fastest, healthiest way to baby is through the kitchen. Let Getting to Baby show you how.
