How infertility struggles can create emotional distance between partners

My partner and I have been trying to get pregnant for two years and we've become these people who plan everything around ovulation and doctor appointments, but we never talk about how scared we both are or what happens if this doesn't work. We're like teammates in a game where we're not allowed to admit we might lose.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shared hope can become a prison when neither person feels safe to voice their fears about the very thing they're fighting for together.
