This past week is known to be NIAW. Only here it's more International :)
I am not going to preach and I am not going to lecture. I am not going to recount our woes of tribulations.
Instead I will only say:
1. Please educate yourself.
2. Infertility is all around you - you have no idea.
3. Allow family plans to be announced at the discretion of the expectant parents. Don't ask when someone will start trying and don't ask when to expect a baby to arrive. If it was any of your business, you'd already know.
4. Be kind. Cut some slack for those that deal with infertility. It's hard, it's painful and it destroys a person from the very core of their humanity.
5. Remember those with infertility and pregnancy loss on Mother's Day and Father's Day. Those who are infertile deserve love and affection, and those who have lost children are parents.
