"A fascinating, well-researched account of uncharted medical advances poised to turn the dating landscape upside down...reads like a page-turner novel full of suspense, plot twists, humor, and heartbreak" ("New York Times" bestselling author Lori Gottlieb). How would you live your life if you could stop your biological clock and free yourself of "baby panic"? Would you date better? Marry later? Relax more? In "Motherhood Rescheduled," journalist Sarah Elizabeth Richards tells the stories of four women--including herself--who attempt to turn back time by freezing their eggs. Their journeys are bumpy, hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, but always rewarding. Richards also explores the history of this controversial science and the hard facts of egg freezing--from the cost and probabilities of success to the technological advances that have made pausing the biological clock an increasingly popular option for women. At a time when one in five American women between the ages of forty and forty-four is childless, and half of those women say they wish they could have children, Richards offers a hopeful message: Women no longer have to make tough choices between career and kids or settle for the wrong relationships. They now have access to a powerful tool to take control of their fertility and take charge of their futures. "Motherhood, Rescheduled" is an invaluable resource and a comforting guide to a brave new frontier of fertility.
