Book review - Cope with Your Biological Clock

This book is essential reading for anyone suffering biological clock anxiety. Deciding whether or not to have a baby is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. The wealth of information presented in this book provides invaluable assistance in helping you make an honest, realistic assessment of your expectations and current circumstances and make the decision that is right for you.It shows motherhood in a realistic light which, while undoubtedly bringing immense joy and satisfaction to some, can be restricting and unbearable for others. Based on detailed research, the book is packed throughout with real life examples of women who have made various choices about motherhood and shows that all choice involves both loss and gain.

There are excellent chapters on how to optimise fertility, the pros and cons of being an older mother, options available for those considering bringing up a child alone, coping with the emotional pain of infertility and the wide range of fertility treatments now available.

One of the main messages of the book is that such a life altering decision should not be based on biological clock panic but on whether you are really ready to became a parent. ''Having a baby is not something to be squeezed in before it is too late ". This very readable book is informative , positive and inspiring.

Highly recommended for anyone aware of the ticking of the biological clock.
