The best book to show normally fertile couples how to increase their chances of conceiving quickly. For the millions of couples who want to have a baby, here's the perfect resource to help maximize their chances for a natural conception and get pregnant on their own timetable. Written by an OB-GYN and fertility specialist, this book draws on all the latest information and technology to show how careful planning, diet, exercise, frequency, and timing of intercourse can influence a woman's chances for conception.

In clear, accessible language, Dr. Christopher Williams reviews the male and female reproductive system, discusses when to stop birth control, dispels myths and rumors about fertility, and explains how to predict ovulation. This first-ever guide to prompt, easy conception goes a long way in helping couples realize their dreams of starting a family when the time is right for them.

Williams, a medical doctor specializing in obstetrics and gynecology, offers important preconceptual advice for everyone of childbearing age. He discusses how to achieve a speedy conception and explains what to do in the preconceptual and early pregnancy periods to improve the pregnancy outcome and increase the child's chances for a healthy start in life. This is a useful book that fills a gap in the current literature in two ways: it addresses conception for couples who do not have diagnosed medical conditions interfering with fertility, and it incorporates new research findings and information on current reproductive technology.
