Review "What you'll get from reading (This is the Two Week Wait), will be a massive virtual hug from a lot of people who really understand what you're going through. It's like sitting down with your mates and having an honest, open chat; leaving you feeling warm, understood, validated and maybe even with a bit of a spring in your step. Because whatever happens: you are not alone"  - Alice Rose, Fertility Life Raft Podcast, @thisisalicerose, thisisalicerose.com and catandalice.com   "The Fertility Journey is a unique and unprecedented time for a couple or anyone desiring a child. Two moment's in a woman's life are memorable: the first is when she feels it's time to have a baby and the second is when she believes there is a reproductive problem.

She instills expertise, garnered from her personal experience, to empower the reader, infuses hope and positivity as well as encouraging mental and physical health.
