If you've just discovered that you need to undergo IVF treatment, or you're in the middle of an IVF cycle, you may find yourself in unfamiliar territory and it can be easy to feel bogged down by the science, the statistics, the success stories and, most worryingly, stories of unsuccessful IVF treatment.

Written by Silvia Dunn, a writer with personal experience of both successful and unsuccessful IVF treatment, 'How to Cope with IVF' gives a jargon-free breakdown of the IVF process and recommends coping strategies for each stage, from preparing emotionally and physically for your IVF cycle through to coping with the results.

This book also explains how to enhance your nutrition by eating a variety of superfoods known for boosting fertility, strengthening and repairing immune systems and keeping bodies strong, happy and healthy. It also recommends simple fertility-boosting juices you can add to your daily routine before, during and after IVF.

It also arms you with ways in which you can cope with IVF in a healthy and positive way, from relaxation and meditation exercises through to pampering yourself using natural products to manage any physical side effects of fertility drugs.

Whatever your fears, concerns, doubts, misconceptions or worries may be, this book will give you hope: hope that you can and will emotionally and physically survive IVF and hope for the future, no matter what happens.

Author Biography

Silvia Dunn is based in Cornwall in the south west of the UK. In addition to running an eCommerce copywriting agency, Silvia is the author of 'How to Cope with IVF'. Silvia has dedicated the last eight years to expanding her family. After trying to conceive naturally for five years, Silvia and her husband were referred for IVF treatment. Following an unsuccessful initial round of IVF they underwent a second successful cycle and their son was born in April 2015. Since then, they have gone through a third round of IVF, which was initially successful, but sadly ended in miscarriage. Silvia wrote 'How to Cope with IVF' during her first two rounds of treatment. She was unable to find a factual, empathetic and sensitive book about what to expect from IVF treatment and was finding the "baby dust" forums a little uninspiring. Silvia published her eBook in April 2015 and has since released the book as a paperback.
