Another publication from the bestselling What to Expect series.   An estimated 11 million couples in the U.S. are currently trying to conceive, and increasingly the preconception planning phase is being recognized as an ever more critical period. What to Expect Before You’re Expecting provides practical advice such as;

• Avoiding foods that decrease fertility (caffeine, saturated fat, alcohol)
• Lifestyle changes (boxers over briefs)
• Getting and staying healthy (pre-conception weight)
• Estimating ovulation

Fertility treatments such as pharmaceuticals, in vitro fertilization, and surrogacy are also addressed.
