Product Description

For the woman trying to conceive, a single place to track and organize cycle and fertility stats and records, as well as tips on staying in prime shape throughout the process

"When did I ovulate last month?"

"Does my LH surge always happen on Day 15?

"How long ago did I get my FSH tested?"

When it comes to getting pregnant, timing and accuracy are everything, yet you have to have the organizational bent of a bookkeeper to keep track of the relevant details! What a woman in charge of her fertility really needs is one place to track everything--a handy log to keep on the nightstand, to toss in her purse when she goes to the doctor, or to whip out for reference when she's searching the Internet.

Spiral-bound for easy and frequent use, The Essential Fertility Log is all that--and a lot more. It has three main sections: a daily journal with space to record ovulation/cycle information, a monthly calendar that displays the big picture of fertility and menstrual cycles, and a section for medication, treatment, and test records. Fun factoids and tips throughout also emphasize staying fit and healthy through regular exercise, good nutrition, and stress management.

A source of daily encouragement as well as a tool for effective communication and collaboration with her doctor, The Essential Fertility Log will keep a woman's spirits up as she rides the emotional roller coaster of trying to conceive.

Customer Reviews

Great way to stay organized!
I bought this book thinking it would be easier than using a regular calendar and it is wonderful! It keeps all your notes, test results, BBT charts in one place, and lets you fill in monthly calendars for looking at the "big" picture. I would recommend this log to anyone who is having a difficult time TTC as it helps keep everything organized and accessible.

Just what I needed
This is a wonderfull fertility log, plenty of space to write down the information you need without all the advice and stuff you don't. I keep my journal next to the bed to write down my morning temps and fertility monitor readings. Every few days I plug the information into my fertility charting software. I love not having to try and remember everything. If you have fertility problems like me you will be glad you have this on your bedside table. There are temping charts, calenders and about 9 months worth of daily info pages so you can keep track of your progress.

Must have when trying to get pregnant!
This book is one of the few sources out there that has valuable fertility information & alternatives, plus a VERY useful monthly log. The log was key in helping me chart my cycle and plan accordingly. Plus, Schlosberg adds a perfect amount of humor to give us all a bit of comic relief during the process!!
