Having a Baby and Other Things I'm Bad At

Short Stories About Living Life with Infertility

De: Bailey Henry

Narrado por: Bailey Henry

Infertility is a battle that women have been fighting for centuries, but the seemingly taboo subject is rarely discussed openly. In Having a Baby and Other Things I'm Bad At, Bailey Henry describes her journey with infertility, including four miscarriages, marriage, grief, love, and the chance she was never properly potty-trained. With raw honesty, heartbreak, and a bit of "potty" humor, Bailey discusses the trials of being pregnant but never having a baby. She masterfully brings women's issues to the foreground (where they belong).

If you've known the devastating loss of a child, or if your life simply hasn't turned out the way you thought it would, this one is for you.

Laughter & Tears All in One

I am so glad I stumbled upon this book. I marathon listened to it in an evening and found myself giggling, even with tears streaming down my face.

After experiencing 3 losses in 9 months, followed now by almost 2 years of unexplained infertility, this book shined a beautiful light on this dark and isolating journey. If you’re anything like me and latching onto all the multitude of self-help books out there to try and crack the infertility code, please do yourself a favor and take a break to listen to Bailey’s words. They’re a welcomed break.

Thank you Bailey for sharing your story, even before reaching your happy ending.

Less than a week after the loss of our precious baby girl, I felt like I was swimming in the middle of an ocean of grief. This book was the raft I needed to stay afloat.

It also is a great reminder that there is light even in the darkest places. Thank you for this beautifully and lovingly written book, Bailey. You helped me when I needed it the most.
