03. Keeping Your Fertility Journey Private without Pushing Away Friends and Family

I hear it all the time...I don't want to push away my friends and family but I don't want to share all the details of our infertility journey. How do I keep things private but not push people away?

Infertility can be incredibly isolating. It can be hard, especially if we are wanting to keep things private and not share with everyone how much we are struggling to have a baby. You might feel like you are pulling away from friends and family. Being around them or in big groups of people can be really challenging because you are on the edge emotionally and not sure how you will react. You want to be honest but you don't want to tell them everything.

I felt this exact same way. I was emotionally fragile yet I value my relationships with the people around me and I didn't want to push them away.

On today's episode I share with you my top tips for being able to keep details about your fertility journey private while still maintaining your friendships and being able to attend family events.
