Explaining Fertility treatment to friends & family

[KOT7]

So my parents are amazing and we're super close but I feel like they just don't get it!!

Does anyone know of any books/leaflets/resources that help other people understand what you're going through??

I'm desperate for their help but I need them to understand first!

They could watch One more shot on Netflix?

I agree. My mum watched this and it really helped her understand.

This is quite a good article that I sent to people to try to help them understand. Also the movie one more shot (on Netflix) is good......be prepared when you watch it.....tears alert!xx

It’s SUCH a good film....I cried, a lot, but it also gave me so much hope and strength. I think you will like it ❤️

There is also a little booklet you can buy called The Waiting Line by Meg Keys that has some helpful advice on what to say and what not to say when a loved one is going through fertility treatment. Inexpensive, I got mine on amazon.

oh great I'll have a look now, thanks

I came to realise that unless you're going through it you can't understand it. Even hubby didn't really understand. Good luck.x
