8Helping families grow is what Dorette Noorhasan, MD, does best. As a board-certified ob-gyn and fertility specialist, Dr. Noorhasan pours her energy and care into educating, encouraging, advising, and supporting people who want to bring a new life into the world. But ironically, one of the most notable fertility doctors was not destined for an easy pregnancy herself. In this raw, honest, and emotional narrative, Dr. Noorhasan shares her life story, from her childhood in Antigua to her professional success as a doctor in the United States. She delves into her personal struggles with conceiving and the many options she tried before successfully bringing her son into the world via surrogacy. In telling her story, Dr. Noorhasan not only sheds much-needed light on an often silent struggle-a struggle that approximately one in eight women experience-but offers the unique perspective of someone who has been on both sides of the exam table. Miracle Baby: A Fertility Doctor's Fight for Motherhood offers comfort and insight to those who have been fighting for family: you are not alone.
