Thanks for your feedback (and for buying the book bron!)
Katie: we actually have written a chapter for each of your two points. The first chapter talks about some of the strange things people do in order to get pregnant. It's not saying people are nuts for trying things (in fact, my wife and I tried a few weird things too), the chapter looks more at why people do things and how to address the issue if the two of you wonder if you're going crazy. Your second point is a good one too - our chapter called 'The last thing you want to hear' talks about the Top 10 dumb things you'll hear (just relax being number one with a bullet) and gives advice on how to respond to it.
bron: one of the things that annoyed me the most when we were TTC was the things people would say to try to make us feel better. Often they were just clueless as to what we were going through and we hurting us (my wife in particular) without knowing it. IMHO, you really need to have gone through an experience like this to understand what it's like. I guess that's why I wrote Swimming Upstream.
