Synopsis

A compassionate, beautifully illustrated guide to navigating the emotional maelstrom of infertility and infant loss―designed for the busy, drained, and courageous

After a diagnosis of unexplained infertility, miscarriage, or a failed fertility round, a woman might receive additional suggestions for medical intervention. But what she rarely, if ever, receives are any tools to help her cope with what she is experiencing. Enter Trying, an illustrated guide that’s like a life raft on the sea of your infertility journey.

The condition of “trying” is a hard and harrowing journey in which people can experience loss, grief, shame, and confusion. Often quietly. Trying holds space for the grief and pain while also offering

  • love and emotional support;
  • relatable and heartfelt stories from people who have been there before;
  • stunning illustrations in a digestible, bite-sized package; and
  • practical coping strategies for reproductive trauma.

Whether you are still trying, have stopped trying, are considering adoption or surrogacy, or are anywhere in between, this gentle companion will empower you to keep braving wind-tossed seas. And it's the perfect, thoughtful alternative to flowers for a loved one navigating loss.

Wherever your journey leads, you are seen, you are heard, and you are not alone.
