Scenario

When couples experience infertility but grieve differently

My partner and I have been trying to get pregnant for two years and every month feels like a small death, but we grieve so differently that I feel like we're going through this completely alone even though we're literally in it together.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shared loss can create profound isolation when two people cannot find each other in their pain.
