Covering preconception and interconception (between-pregnancy) well-being for women and men, Amy Ogle and Lisa Mazzullo draw on new research from their complementary fields of expertise and reveal how good preconception health can lower the risk of pregnancy complications and improve lifelong health. Why a ninety-day guide? It takes that long for sperm to mature, and at least that much time for the prospective mother to ensure that her body becomes pregnancy-ready. In a warm, intelligent style, the authors address up-to-date topics such as age, heredity, vaccinations, supplements, and weight. In easily accessible chapters, this guide covers such topics as
Â
⢠Nutrition: meal makeovers plus new facts (and fiction) about fish, omega-3s, vitamins, and herbs
⢠Personal readiness: how to assess emotional, financial, and physical readiness, including a preconception-friendly exercise program, plus advice for avid athletes
⢠Becoming an informed patient: choosing a doctor, insurance coverage, baby-friendly medications, and the latest genetic screening guidelines
⢠Womenâs health: expanded coverage of gynecologic and medical conditions affecting fertility and pregnancy (including bariatric surgery and physical disabilities), and steps to create a welcoming womb by optimizing immune health
⢠Environment: a roundup of environmental exposures and travel tips
⢠Menâs health: practical lifestyle advice for men to help maximize the number and health of sperm
⢠Conception: clear signs that predict when to âstart trying,â and the truth behind common myths
⢠Infertility: reassuring options for reproductive assistance
