It has always been believed that the conception of a baby should be a planned process, a decision that is made when there is emotional and economic stability, over which you have control. And no matter how long the couple takes to make the decision, once they do it becomes a reason for illusion and hope.
However, in that search unexpected diagnoses are often found and that is where anguish is born and countless ghosts, unresolved questions and misinformation are created that causes the couple to stagnate; That is why it is essential to lighten the burdens with a good diagnosis and have medical and emotional support that allows them to clearly visualize their situation.
Infertility is more common than we think, for this reason it is vital to be accompanied by professionals who can identify the cause and offer the indicated treatment; and on an emotional level it is very important to express what you feel and think, even more so when you decide to start treatment and the couple faces the challenge of continuing with your life and not letting the pregnancy become the center of it.
In these processes it is important to visualize and accept that you have a difficulty conceiving, seeking help and ensuring that this experience strengthens you as individuals and as a couple. It is normal to feel sadness, frustration or anguish, the key is to learn to control these feelings and to generate mechanisms to overcome them and continue the search in a calmer way.
Likewise, it is important to understand that men and women assume infertility in different ways and express it as such, women want to constantly talk about this process and look for answers, while men in their rationality are quieter and prefer to avoid the subject and it is there where sometimes couple conflicts arise arising episodes of lack of communication, emotional crises and disagreements at a sexual level, resulting in a state of isolation.
Our invitation is that as a couple and as individuals you work on your emotions, that you seek help from professionals who are experts in the physical and emotional treatment of infertility, but above all, do not allow this condition to rob you of the magic of your essence, love for the other and the possibility of dreaming.
