Dear Reader,
My wife got her period for the tenth month in a row, and I stood in the bathroom having never felt like less of a man in my entire life. “I think it’s time,” I said. “We should buy an over-the-counter sperm test so I can know it’s my fault already.” One trip to the pharmacy, two home-fertility tests, and four days later, I officially had a low sperm count, and our inability to conceive finally attached itself to the word we had avoided uttering in ten months of unsuccessful sex. We were infertile, and it was, indeed, my fault.
Maybe Baby is a love story; an infertile love story. It is the story of a man deeply in love with his wife and desperate to become a father. It is about the intense love and connection that adheres to any flavor of family unit, biological or otherwise. And it is a romantic comedy—a book about inappropriate moments at the urologist’s office, reproductive clinics, survival, and (hopefully one day) triumph, all through the eyes of a man.
My infertile journey has brought me to ePregnancy.com where I am now a featured blogger, my quarterly Maybe Baby column appears in a syndicated magazine that runs in more than 70 newspapers across the U.S. and Canada and my blog appears on the websites of more than 15 national newspapers.
I invite you to write me at matthewm@contentthatworks.com and be one of five people to win a copy of my book and visit my blog which Parents magazine has named a top-five fatherhood blog at www.maybebaby.com.
