The grief of childlessness for those who want kids

What makes this harder is an unwritten implicit expectation that society has around the idea that every woman should be able to conceive. So very often women end up feeling a sense of shame, helplessness, feeling they are not good enough and also blaming their own bodies for not being able to conceive

We need to acknowledge that infertility is difficult. As a couple, choose to acknowledge the grief and give yourself the permission to grieve. If you find it overwhelming to support each other or talk openly, reach out to a mental health professional. If you are supporting a friend or a family member, choose to ask them how they want to be supported. (StockPic)
