    Gerry Ryan show went well today. You can listen here.

    I will be on Ireland AM on TV3 tomorrow morning at 9am. I’ve been told not to wear black or white. Hmmm, nearly all my maternity clothes are black. Think I will have to race out and get something quickly. See you later!

      Thanks for the link to the archive, I was getting impatient waiting for the GR show podcast to pop into my reader.

      Wife and I really enjoyed the interview, and had a LOT of “Mmmm Hmmm” nodding moments.

      Finally manged to order the book direct from Liberties also.

      The very best of luck.

      Hi Feebee
      Just want to tell you that I bought the book last night and I think it’s absolutely brilliant! It’s very informative, and very readable. Well done, it’s a great achievement. I will be passing it on to friends who are just starting ttc. The final chapter on miscarriage was the one I felt most relevant to our situation, and I thought it was really well thought out and written.
      Congrats again!

      Sooooo glad you liked it Jane! It’s nice when reviewers are positive about it but it’s my peers I am most concerned about impressing. There are so many other books I’ve read that have been good up to a point and then they make some ridiculous comment about stress or diet and I have to throw the book against the wall in annoyance. I hope I pass the wall test!
