Couples that are struggling to become pregnant may feel disconnected. Men and women have different ways to express their feelings. Be patient with your partner. Set aside times to talk about it and then have other times that you just focus on each other without talking about it.

You may have little time to visit with friends. It gets complicated when your friends have kids too and schedules to coordinate. However, I love that feeling after I have called a dear friend and laughed and vented and she knows me so well. Make a point this week to call a friend or set-up plans – you’ll be thankful you did!

October is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. Please remember the moms, dads and families who have lost their precious child. They need our support and love!
