And from a poll I recently conducted over on Instagram, 88% of people said that their fertility struggles had an impact on their sex life.

The moment it all came crashing down for me like a house of cards. Everything I had ever believed in. Was when I realised that I didn’t have control over whether I fell pregnant or not each month.
And for someone who likes to have everything in order, who isn't...
Wake me up when Mother’s Day is over!!
THE most dreaded day in the whole year for someone who is trying to conceive (ttc).

You finally saw those two lines and felt pure joy and excitement. You imagined holding your baby in your arms..... before fear stepped in and took over.
I thought pregnancy was the cure for infertility and my miscarriage grief. Turns out I was wrong.
Anyone who has ever fallen pregnant...
Anyone who is trying to conceive or wants to have babies in the future has that room set aside. You know, the one that accumulates baby things. Hand-me downs from your sister or token items you purchase for when you’re pregnant. That cute book you can picture reading them...
When I was in my 20’s, I watched my father die of cancer and held his hand as he took his last breath. I visited my grandmother and hugged her in the hospital the night before she died. And this all happened a month apart!
