We all start at square one with our knowledge of health, but what matters is our willingness to learn and grow, and one great way to do that is through reading! The books listed here are some of our favorites for fertility, pregnancy, infants, and children.

It Starts with the Egg by Rebecca Fett “The latest scientific research reveals that egg quality has a powerful impact on how long it takes to get pregnant and the risk of miscarriage.

Based on a vast array of scientific research, It Starts with the Egg provides a comprehensive program for improving egg quality in three months, with specific advice tailored to a variety of fertility challenges— including endometriosis, unexplained infertility, diminished ovarian reserve, PCOS, and recurrent miscarriage.

With concrete strategies such as minimizing exposure to common toxins, choosing the right vitamins and supplements to safeguard developing eggs, and harnessing nutritional advice shown to boost IVF success rates, this book offers practical solutions that will help you get pregnant faster and deliver a healthy baby.”
