Infertile but Fruitful - Finding Fulfilment When You Can't Conceive

This candid yet caring book is a help for those struggling with infertility — wives and husbands — but it’s also a tremendous resource for priests, physicians, counselors, and the loved ones of anyone bearing the cross of infertility. In these engaging and accessible pages, Snead reveals:

• How to find comfort through the tangle of emotions experienced with infertility
• The ins and outs of seeking quality health care, fertility testing, and treatment options
• Practical tips on treatments gleaned from scientific research and personal experience
• The Church’s teaching about the dignity of the human person, and the two ends of married love
• What to consider regarding Artificial Reproductive Technologies (ART)
• Ways to prepare for welcoming a new child, whether biological or adopted

This powerful book also includes stories of other women who, struggling with infertility, embraced God’s plan of love and life, and either adopted, eventually conceived children, or made the world a better place as spiritual mothers. Snead’s “Lessons Along the Way” at the end of each chapter offer real-life suggestions to help guide and support you on your journey.
