About Me

Hi! I’ve always written about whatever I was going through, from jumping out of a plane to the scary world of dating. As a health and lifestyle reporter, I found my first foray into the world of infertility fascinating — and tumultuous. I thought baby-making would be quick. It wasn’t, and three years and 30+ columns later in The New York Times, and stories in The Washington Post, Newsweek, Slate, Haa’retz and The Forward I finally got and stayed pregnant (my fifth pregnancy!). Now I want to help everyone get and stay pregnant and avoid many of the pitfalls and mistakes I made. And to not go crazy along the way.

Here are a few articles written about me:
