Mission Baby

“Hi, I am Trisha Agarwal, a 35-year-old married woman with a beautiful life but no children. As much as I’d like to believe that becoming a mother is a possibility, I know that there is an equal or maybe a higher probability that I will win a lottery than getting pregnant.” Trisha had always been a happy-go-lucky person who looked at the brighter side of things, till the day she started planning a baby. Soon she realized that there was nothing natural about trying to conceive naturally. To add to her woes, her younger sister, Mishti, was blessed with a baby without much ado. With her biological clock ticking at a pace faster than daily inflation, she decided to take charge and embrace the world of fertility treatments with the confidence that in no time she would be flaunting her baby bump. But soon she realized that the world of fertility treatments was not just overwhelming but also complex, demanding and expensive. From a wide range of blood tests to ovulation trackers, hormonal medicines, transvaginal scans, painful injections and seeking divine intervention, she endured it all and yet did not give up hope. She has come a long way from where she started (considering her dwindling bank balance), has been through a roller coaster of emotions (blame the hormonal injections) and learned a few valuable lessons about herself (she still sucks at accepting failures) in this incredible but daunting mission of conceiving a baby. Will she succeed in this arduous mission?

New parents and parents of toddlers face unique challenges when it comes to planning outdoor trips. “Family-friendly trail” is often a misleading phrase, and doesn’t take young children under the age of 5 into consideration, whose safety and comfort require a different perspective. The unpredictable nature of little ones leads many parents to put their adventure dreams on the back burner, missing out on years of meaningful experiences as a family. Hike it Baby presents 100 outdoor adventures across the U.S. that you can take with babies and toddlers (really!), along with everything you need to know about exploring the natural world. Sourced from real families using Hike it Baby’s trail-tested system, this book helps moms and dads get out there in their comfort zone, yet feel like hardcore adventurers! Whether you’ve always wanted to hike part of the Appalachian Trail, splash around in gentle Northwest waterfalls, or scramble up rocks in the desert surrounded by Joshua Trees, this book shows you how to plan a truly memorable journey together.
