The Pain of Trying

Trying to Fall PregnantIt is expected that ‘falling' pregnant is like an easy and natural process; you just ‘fall' into it. And although for many that's just it, for others it can be a long, stressful and frustrating journey.

Not succeeding can be extremely difficult and painful. All of a sudden it does not seem as easy as ‘falling' into it, more seems to involve a lot more and we realize some effort is inevitable. Lots of planning, calculations, tests and sometimes extreme measures or treatments may be required, which in turn does not even guarantee you a pregnancy and can end in another disappointment.

It can therefore also be challenging for your relationship, your sexual intimacy and your overall wellbeing and happiness. Please remember that many couples do eventually succeed having the baby they longed for, especially with the advances in infertility. But in the mean time it is important to stay strong and healthy, to keep positive and to not blame one another but to be there for each other instead.
