Miscarriage: Why it Happens and How Best to Reduce Your Risks--A Doctor's Guide to the Facts

17 reviews
Henry Lerner, Alice Domar

Da Capo Press, 2003

Finally My Questions Answered
After having gone through two miscarriages, I found Dr. Lerner's book wonderfully helpful. It helped me understand why I probably had my miscarriages and made me feel positive about going ahead to try to get pregnant again. I think anyone who has had a miscarriage and feels bad about it -- and I think everyone who goes through it does -- will benefit from reading this book. We did!

Self-Nurture: Learning to Care for Yourself As Effectively As You Care for Everyone Else

22 reviews
Alice D. Domar, Henry Dreher

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2001

A "must read" for all women!
This is one of the best books - if not THE best "self-help" type book I have ever read (and I've read a lot of them)! I bought the book and the audio tapes and fear I may wear them out from listening to them so often. Dr Domar provides the tools for learning how to overcome the stress so many women endure due to the many roles they must function in as mom, sister, daughter, wife... I found her ...

Self-Nurture: Learning To Care For Yourself As Effectively As You Care
Alice D./Dreher, Henry Domar

Books on Tape, Inc., 2000

Domar believes that learning to nurture themselves is essential for women whose lives often feel overwhelming. Most women have to juggle the roles of caregiver, breadwinner, and nurturer - and have been taught to put everyone else's needs ahead of their own. The result is a near epidemic of physical, emotional, and spiritual fatigue. She doesn't believe you have to give up your life to enrich it. Here she shows you how to restructure your ...

Crown, 2008

The Imperfect Review on the Near Perfect Book
In a world of quick read self-help books all too often serving up platitudes, it is a pleasure to read a thoughtful, constructive, guide book on such an important subject. Author Alice Domar does a wonderful job of weaving short snippets about her patients (anonymity protected of course), candid confessions about her own struggles with perfectionism, and compassionate guidance as to self help ...

Delta, 1997

Not Just for Infertility
This book was recommended to me last spring by members of my infertility support group. I love this book! It was the first book to acknowledge the amount of stress, pain and depression infertile women go through. I use the relaxation techniques not just for infertility, but for every crisis in my life. The advice is practical, simple, and easy to use throughout the day. And it does seem as if the ...

Free Press, 2000

I owe my pregnancy to this book!
I never write book reviews, but I owe the birth of my daughter to the advice given by this book! After 6 years of no contraception, my husband and I finally decided that we were going to REALLY TRY to have a child, so I bought this book, as a starting point to figure out what we--both over 35-- needed to do to get pregnant. In our case, the changes in lifestyle recommended in the book were all we ...
