“A warmly empathic, wide-ranging manual.” (Kirkus Reviews)
"This valuable unbiased book skillfully shows readers how to stop fretting over the choice and take time to make the right one." (BlueInk starred review and notable book)

Baby or child-free? Which will it be? Is this decision keeping you up at night? Do you feel terrified you will regret your decision? Are you paralyzed by this high-stakes choice?
Now, you can get off the fence and get on with your life. Imagine your relief when you discover the right choice and break free from obsession. Picture yourself enjoying the pleasures of parenthood or the freedom and spontaneity of living child-free.
The Baby Decision is a powerful, unbiased guidebook by a professional coach/psychotherapist who has specialized in the topic for 40 years. With wisdom, depth, and humor, Merle will help you take this overwhelming decision and break it down into a digestible sequence of five steps.
During this discovery process, you will:
- Dissolve fear and doubt, using 30 visualization exercises and thought experiments to uncover your answer
- Have deep talks with your partner, even if you disagree
- Resist pressures from family and friends and fully consider the rewards of the child-free choice
- Learn the latest on one-child families, single, LGBTQI+, and older parents' fertility and adoption
- Steal a few benefits from the opposite choice
