Taking
Charge of Your Fertility
Toni Weschler, MPH

TCOYF is the book which has
allowed me to take absolute control of my fertility. I read it after
Women's Bodies... and found it so very empowering. I can't describe
how turned on and powerful I felt the first time we made love using FAM
as our birth control. To KNOW what is happening with your body and
to predict the flow of your cycle is an amazingly powerful feeling.
When we got the book, DH was
amazed at how big it was. He couldn't fathom what could encompass
such a simple concept (yeah, HE'S not the one doing it). |
The last 50 pages or so were not
all that applicable (Beyond Fertility: Practical Benefits of Charting
Your Cycle) but I loved the NINE color shots of cervical mucous, the numerous
charts of cycles with troubleshooting and definitions. The book was
quite light on TTC and breastfeeding, but gave me enough to educate myself
about my body and my cycle. The
side effect of using this method is the ammo it give you should you need
to walk into an OB's office. You will probably be more knowledgeable
about your body and women's bodies in general and their cycles than the
OB. [Review by mamakat]
