About the Book
Unsung Lullabies is unique among self-help books on infertility. Couples often feel like they’re going crazy and ask, why does it hurt ‘so bad?’ Unsung Lullabies acknowledges the trauma and costs emotional, physical, and financial of infertility while it delves into the deeper psychological issues couples face.
The authors, three psychologists who have faced infertility themselves, show couples how to:
- Reduce their sense of helplessness and isolation
- Identify their mates’ coping styles to erase unfair expectations
- Listen to their “unsung lullabies” their conscious and unconscious dreams about having a family to mourn the losses of infertility and move on.
Ground-breaking, wise, and compassionate, Unsung Lullabies is a necessary companion for anyone coping with infertility.
