Reason has no power over grief

Trying for a baby stirs up every emotion possible, if you been trying for a few month or years. We often forget the grief of it, for many it’s a silent battle.

I encourage patients to recognize the grief tied to trying, the waves going out and in. Let yourself ride through the highs and lows, don’t push your grief down. Feel it, talk about it and step through it.

And don’t let anyone tell you you have to stay positive and you need to stress less! This is complete BS and not helpful. Let’s have more compassion and less shame. Let’s have a little more love for our bodies and mind.

Fertility can knock you down, let’s normalize it all. Much much love~ Katie
