I'm passing along information about an upcoming event at the Wellesley
Booksmith that many of you may find interesting. Jenny Minton, will be
speaking about her new book on her experience with IVF, pregnancy,
prematurity, twins and more on Tuesday, May 9th at 6:30 PM at the Wellesley
Booksmith at 82 Central Street, Wellesley, MA.

Jenny Minton underwent in-vitro fertilization and gave birth to twin boys at
31 weeks. They spent over two months in the NIC unit in a New York hospital,
and I'm happy to say they're both doing extremely well today at 3 years old,
and Jenny has had another son, also through IVF, since then who was not born
prematurely. Happy endings abound here!

With THE EARLY BIRDS, Jenny has written a memoir of motherhood in the world
of modern medicine, and for a generation of women who are navigating the
uncharted (and nearly unregulated) world of reproductive medicine, THE EARLY
BIRDS will be a welcome find. But the book really is a universal tale--all
mothers will connect with Jenny's timeless struggle to understand the forces
of God, science, fate, and fortune in her boy's lives. Jenny's book
illuminates the highs and lows of the first year of motherhood that all
mothers know well.
