Critics Review
“How to Make a Baby is a warm, honest, and empowering guide for LGBTQ+ families navigating the fertility journey. Allie and Sam share their personal experience with humor, heart, and clarity, making space for anyone who has ever felt like they didn’t quite belong in the fertility world. This book is the supportive friend and trusted resource we all need.”
—Dr. Aimee D. Eyvazzadeh, MPH, reproductive endocrinologist and host of The Egg Whisperer Show
“Allie and Sam not only share their beautiful path to becoming parents, but do so in a way that is equal parts informative and moving. A must-read for families trying to conceive and for those that want to see parts of their own story represented and reflected.”
—Rachael Lippincott, New York Times bestselling author of She Gets the Girl
“Open, frank, touching, and informative… Allie and Sam Conway are the perfect couple to write this groundbreaking book. Their journey is remarkable. I wish I’d had it when we went through IVF.”
—J.T. Ellison, New York Times bestselling author of It’s One of Us
