<p class="book_description"><b>Winner of a 2015 Independent Publisher Book Awards Bronze Medal</b></p><p class="book_description">One size fits all does not apply to pregnancy and childbirth. Each one is different, unique, and comes with its share of pleasure and pain. But how does one prepare for an unexpected loss of a pregnancy or hoped-for baby? In <i>How to Expect What You&#8217;re Not Expecting</i>, writers share their true stories of miscarriage, stillbirth, infertility, and other, related losses. This literary anthology picks up where some pregnancy books end and offers diverse, honest, and moving essays that can prepare and guide women and their families for when the unforeseen happens.</p><p class="book_description">Contributors include Chris Arthur, Kim Aubrey, Janet Baker, Yvonne Blomer, Jennifer Bowering Delisle, Kevin Bray, Erika Connor, Sadiqa de Meijer, Jessica Hiemstra, Fiona Tinwei Lam, Lisa Martin-DeMoor, Lorri Neilsen Glenn, Susan Olding, Laura Rock, Gail Marlene Schwartz, Maureen Scott Harris, Carrie Snyder, Cathy Stonehouse, and Chris Tarry.</p><p class="book_description">The fourth book in a loosely linked series of anthologies about the twenty-first-century family, <i>How to Expect What You&#8217;re Not Expecting</i> follows <i>Somebody&#8217;s Child</i>, <i>Nobody&#8217;s Mother</i>, and <i>Nobody&#8217;s Father</i>, essay collections about adoption and childless adults. Together, these four books challenge readers to re-examine traditional definitions of the concept of &#8220;family.&#8221;</p>
