A to Zzz: F for Fertility

Fertility: why is it still so hard to talk about? The process of conception isn’t always as fun or easy as we’re lead to believe. It can be long and heartbreaking, full of fear (and monthly disappointment) that parenthood may never happen. From peeing on sticks, to taking temps, the anger and frustration when you see blood, miscarriage and the agony of ttc afterwards. It’s all so much and, often, all so silent. This week, The Sleep Mums: A to Zzz is Paul and Louise’s story. It’s a reminder that the path to parenthood isn’t a smooth one…   [although theirs has a bit of a surprising ending involving a giant wooden penis!]
