Reviews
Sophie’s words provide a supportive lighthouse of hope for many. She is gifted at starting and facilitating the conversations ensuring those who feel like they sit in the shadows of other people’s celebrations are supported, seen and validated. She holds up a microphone to the stories that need to be heard, generously sharing her own along the way. * Anna Mathur * I read Sophie’s words with tears, a lump in my throat, much nodding and laughter too. This beautifully-written, tender book has captured so much of what I experienced and, when women share, it’s incredibly comforting and empowering. I hope her book plays a part in the women’s healthcare revolution that the world so needs * Melissa Hemsley * A vital, heartfelt read for anyone navigating the rough seas of infertility and pregnancy loss. * Leah Hazard * An important, insightful book for midwives and anyone interested in birth … Well written, deeply personal [it’s] a story that will resonate with many readers. This is an important story to tell and highlights, also, the importance of language used around birth. * Anna Kent * 'The Infertile Midwife by Sophie Martin is a deeply personal account of infertility and loss, love and joy. I am so glad Sophie has shared the story of her three beautiful sons and I know it will help many, many readers. It was an honour to read this book.' -- Marianne Levy * Marianne Levy *

Author Information
Sophie Martin (@the.infertile.midwife) is a registered midwife and worked in a London hospital for ten years before moving to a hospital in Essex. Sophie’s wider experience of infertility and baby loss informs her practice, and has led to her being approached by organisations such as Emma’s Diary and My Surrogacy Journey to provide a professional overview. Every October, Sophie curates and delivers a series of online talks and interviews to coincide with Baby Loss Awareness Week, during which she’s been in conversation with guests such as Elizabeth Day and Izzy Judd. Sophie lives in Essex with her husband and young son.
