{"product_id":"9781911709046","title":"Life, Almost : Miscarriage, misconceptions and a search for answers from the brink of motherhood","description":"\u003cp\u003eVital and heart-wrenchingly intimate' Leah Hazard'Urgent, fascinating and thought-provoking' Julia Bueno'Thoughtfully researched and beautifully written' Pippa VosperAfter losing four pregnancies with no obvious cause, Jennie Agg set out to understand why miscarriage remains such a profoundly misunderstood, under-researched and under-acknowledged experience.   Part-memoir, part-scientific investigation, Life, Almost documents Agg's path to motherhood and her search for answers. Tracing each tentative step of her fifth pregnancy - as her body becomes a creature she does not wish to spook - Agg dismantles the myths that we unquestioningly accept about our reproductive lives:� Why are we told miscarriage can't be prevented when half of all miscarriages are of perfectly healthy embryos?� Why is it normal not to tell anyone you're pregnant for the first three months? � Why don't we know why labour starts? Drawing on pioneering research and interviews with world-leading experts, Life, Almost is a ground-breaking book that will change how you think about miscarriage, and a moving reflection on grief and love at the edge of life as we understand it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rye Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45459608436957,"sku":"9781911709046","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/1368\/0730\/files\/9781911709046.jpg?v=1719995829","url":"https:\/\/ryebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781911709046","provider":"Rye Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
