When Ryan Smith and his wife, Catie, decided it was time to start a family, they couldn’t wait for the next chapter of their lives as parents. It’s simple, right? A few months of “trying,” and next thing you know, Ryan would be trading in long golf weekends and 2-for-1 happy hour specials for sleep-deprivation and diaper blowouts. This trade may seem lopsided, but it was one he was willing to make to become a dad. Little did he know (so naive!) that for them and millions of others, the path to parenthood isn’t always that simple. Infertility was about to take over his life. In FINALLY! . . . An Infertility Book for Dudes,Ryan shares his experiences and insider knowledge about the infertility process from the perspective of the everyday guy. With his guiding motto of “don’t forget the fellas are going through this too” as his inspiration, he explores everything from serious topics surrounding infertility to the downright ridiculous situations infertility treatment has put him in over the years. Some topics covered include: The prevalence of infertility Insights on how to properly deliver an inch-and-a-half needle into your partner’s butt cheek Dealing with loss Hiding the fertility medicine before friends stop by Figuring out how to support your hormone-filled partner How to “get the job done” in a specimen collection room in the middle of a bustling fertility clinic Nothing is out of bounds in this relatable, much-needed resource for men. Whether you are a rookie just entering the infertility world and trying to figure out what may lie ahead or a grizzled veteran on your fourth round of IVF looking for something to relate to, this nontraditional handbook for infertility is must-read.
