Written during a long wait, this book opens up Cheryl's painfully honest, personal journals. She explores what it's like to enlist in God's Marriage Boot Camp, and how to survive singlehood year after solitary year. She wrestles with her Creator over multiple best friends that never see her "that way." Then there are those lists of what she wanted - you know, the ones she revised a billion times then laminated for safekeeping. She watches, bewildered, as much younger women find love that seems to elude her.

Publisher's summary
Have you been actively trying to conceive for the past 12 months or more to no avail? If you answered "Yes", then welcome to infertility. It's a journey like no other. It's one you never wanted to embark on, and it's definitely one you don't want to stay on for very long. But since you're here, let this audiobook be your traveling companion!
In What to Expect When You're Not Expecting: Navigating Infertility, Frances Hoelsema uses her own personal experiences, as well as those of many other women, to guide and inspire you on this ultra-frustrating, highly emotional, and what feels like an extremely lonely journey.
If you've got questions...there are answers! If you need tips...plenty are provided! If you need someone to understand...these women do! If you're feeling alone...be assured you're not!
Whether you've just begun your infertility journey or have been on it for quite some time, there is something for everyone. From astounding statistics, to real-life examples, to concrete sources of hope, this is one audiobook you won't want to be without.
So sit tight and buckle up! The journey will be bumpy, but with What to Expect When You're Not Expecting: Navigating Infertility by your side, you've got this!
Disclaimer: As a matter of legality, please know that this audiobook is not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any part of infertility or any other disease you may be experiencing. This audiobook is in no way meant to substitute consulting with your physician.
Please also know you will not find any special diets and get-pregnant-quick tricks because these things simply don’t exist, and there won’t be any pointing fingers or commands on what to do or not to do because as part of an infertility community, those things are not in our genetic makeup.
What will you find? You will find useful information regarding infertility that, whether you are a new or seasoned traveler, will help you navigate your own journey. There are plenty of statistics, tips, real-life examples, and more that not only validate the things you’re going through, but that can be used for inspiration while you cope.
I, Frances Hoelsema, as well as the many other women who contributed to this content, want nothing more than for you to find comfort in knowing you’re not crazy, you’re not alone, and there is always hope.
Also, as a side note, please know that this audiobook will contain some religious references, including multiple Bible verses. If this is not your type of thing, please feel free to bypass those sections, or perhaps pass on this audiobook altogether. I in no way want to offend anyone, so please proceed in the way that best suits your comfortability.

Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross created her classic seminal work, On Death and Dying, to offer us a new perspective on the terminally ill. It is not a psychoanalytic study, nor is it a "how-to" manual for managing death. Rather, it refocuses on the patient as a human being and a teacher, in the hope that we will learn from him or her about the final stages of life.

In each of our lives we are faced with events that seem inexplicable, unjust, even cruel - events that can shatter our perception of the world, our understanding of ourselves, and our faith in a higher power. Friends and family members often offer comfort with "Everything happens for a reason" - a simple, common phrase with an unbearably elusive meaning. In Everything Happens for a Reason, psychotherapist Mira Kirshenbaum helps us understand the principles behind this frequently used phrase and provides us with tools to grasp its true meaning.

Mayim Bialik was the child star of the popular 1990s TV sitcom Blossom, but she definitely didn't follow the typical child-star trajectory. Instead, Mayim got her Ph.D. in neuroscience from UCLA, married her college sweetheart, and had two kids. Mayim then did what many new moms do - she read a lot of books, talked with other parents, and she soon started questioning a lot of the conventional wisdom she heard about the "right" way to raise a child. That's when she turned to attachment parenting.

Face it, your attitudes about marriage and the path to marriage are probably wrong. Some you've inherited, some you've simply bought - hook, line, and sinker - and some you've made up yourself. They have translated into bad action (or no action) in dating and relationships. But it's not too late; you can break the cycle of dating dysfunction and learn to honor marriage, marry well, and live intentionally while you wait.
