This book is absolutely remarkable! It's informative, sensitive, funny, and wise. Reading it feels like having a conversation with a fairy godmother who's also a gynecologist and an expert on fertility.

Sophia Money-Coutts has written a masterpiece called Big Fat Negative (BFN). This term is commonly used on internet forums to describe a negative pregnancy test.

Infertility can be a lonely journey, especially for one in every six couples who struggle to conceive. Despite this, many people don't feel comfortable talking openly about their experiences and sharing what they're going through. As a result, they feel isolated and alone.

It doesn't have to be this way. By talking, laughing, and shouting about our experiences, we can start to lift the cloak of shame that often engulfs those going through it.

Big Fat Negative does just that. This no-nonsense, honest guide to infertility from the hosts of the Big Fat Negative podcast smashes the taboo around this isolating and heartbreaking illness, offering first-hand experience, an understanding voice when friends don't get it, expert advice, reassurance for when you feel alone, and - most importantly - humor when you need it the most.

Using first-hand accounts of the various hurdles of infertility, from work to diagnoses and IVF, coupled with advice from leading experts, Big Fat Negative will hold your hand on the not-so-simple journey to motherhood - helping you to face and defeat the trials of trying for a baby.

This book is a must-read for anyone who has ever struggled with infertility or knows someone who has. It's a compassionate and empowering guide that will provide you with the information, support, and humor you need to navigate this difficult journey.
