Tending to Your Womb

“Most books about fertility focus on the well-being of the baby, but as Anietie Ukpe Wallace’s book relays, this care truly begins with our own female bodies. We take better care of what we know. Tending to Your Womb will be a treasured resource.” —Tami Lynn Kent, author of Wild Feminine, Wild Creative, and Wild Mothering “Tending to Your Womb is a deeply compassionate guide to every stage of your reproductive journey—whether you are menstruating, trying to conceive, navigating loss, welcoming a baby, or entering menopause.... This is not another book telling you what to do with your body; it is an invitation to listen, to tend, and to reclaim your womb as a source of wisdom, resilience, and healing.” —Pregnancy Magazine “Dr. Tia Ukpe-Wallace has written the rare kind of reproductive health guide that is both clinically rigorous and deeply compassionate. Tending to Your Womb empowers readers to become informed, embodied self-advocates—bridging science with the lived intelligence of the body. Clear, practical, and profoundly reassuring, this is the book I want in every woman’s hands.”—Dr. Julie Von, author of Spiritual Fertility ""Ukpe-Wallace maintains an encouraging yet realistic tone, acknowledging a successful pregnancy isn’t in the cards for everyone. Readers will find this a helpful resource.""—Publishers Weekly “Dr. Ukpe-Wallace combines a compassionate, empowering guide rich with resources to not just deepen your understanding of your body, but with ac­tionable tools and advice to help you care for it. Tending to Your Womb is a tremendous resource for any woman at any stage in their journey.—Dr. Jolene Brighten, author of Beyond the Pill and Is This Normal? “While every reproductive journey is different, every body deserves care—no matter the outcome. Tending to Your Womb offers a holistic, evidence-based approach to womb health, empowering readers with guidance and tools to become their own first line of care through fertility, birth or loss, healing, and beyond.""—Katy Bowman, author of Move Your DNA and Diastasis Recti “I wish the pain of a challenged pregnancy or loss on nobody. But if troubles befall this journey, there is no better resource to hold your hand, whisper guidance into your ear, and help you through this process than Tending to Your Womb. Dr. Ukpe-Wallace urges you to reconnect to your body’s parts by thoroughly investigating your tissues with curiosity, humility, and a new way of listening. Share this book with your mom, sisters, aunts, and daugh­ters, for there is no book that tells the truth quite like this.”—Jill Miller, author of Body By Breath and The Roll Model “As a podcaster who interviews women about their pregnancies and births, I’m always searching for resources that empower people to understand their bodies on their own terms. Dr. Ukpe-Wallace has created exactly that. Tending to Your Womb is a compassionate, evidence-informed guide that fills the gaps so many of my guests mention in their stories—questions never fully answered, symptoms dismissed, and grief not given space.” —Bryn Huntpalmer, host of The Birth Hour podcast “Shaped by Dr. Tia’s personal experience of pregnancy loss alongside deep subject-matter expertise, the book feels like a gift forged through grief, offered with clarity and care. It clarifies something we rarely discuss: fertility is a vital sign, and it matters for all women, not just those trying to get pregnant.”—Marlo Fisken, creator of Flow Movement “A soulful, science-based guide offering sensitivity and real support in caring for your reproductive health”—Christene Barberich, A Tiny Apt. and co-founder of Refinery29
