Quotes on The Infertility Journey

– David Platt

“Infertility often comes with grief and loss. You have to let go of the vision of how long the journey will be and learn to flow and become stronger through the process.”

– Halle Tecco

“The English language lacks the words to mourn an absence. For the loss of a parent, grandparent, spouse, child or friend, we have all manner of words and phrases, some helpful some not. Still we are conditioned to say something, even if it is only “I’m sorry for your loss.” But for an absence, for someone who was never there at all, we are wordless to capture that particular emptiness. For those who deeply want children and are denied them, those missing babies hover like silent ephemeral shadows over their lives. Who can describe the feel of a tiny hand that is never held?”

– Laura Bush

“This month would be different. We timed everything perfectly used all the tips and tricks. But every month it’s the same. This same conversation. The same heartbreak. As if it were the 1st”

“After a while, when you’re not successful, you start to associate the word ‘failure’ every time you pee on a stick and it doesn’t come out the right color. What starts out as a dream becomes a project that’s all consuming — everywhere you look, women are pregnant, and every song on the radio seems like it’s all about being pregnant! It becomes a very frustrating, frightening place.”

– Brooke Shields (Down Came the Rain )

“I found that each time a test was negative, it stopped the dreaming and hoping for a while. Taking the test was a way of puncturing the balloons of hope, because if I didn’t, they would lift and lift without any evidence, and their falling back down every month was too painful. Essentially, I took all these tests to keep myself from hoping, because the hoping was breaking my heart.”

– Shauna Niequist (Bread and Wine: A Love Letter to Life Around the Table with Recipes)

“It’s hard to wait around for something you know might never happen; It’s even harder to give up when you know it’s everything you want.”

“I learned that all pain and loss is in fact a gift. Having miscarriages taught me that I had to mother myself before I could be a mother to someone else.”

– Beyonce (Elle Magazine)

“Sometimes it’s hard to see the rainbow when there’s been endless days of rain.”

– Christina Greer (Two-Week Wait: Motherhood Lost and Found)

“In the Old Testament, a person in grief tore his robe and didn’t run out to Kohl’s to get a new one to go to church. Women cut their hair. Men shaved their beards. There was weeping and wailing. For a whole year, nobody expected you to look or be the way you were. How wonderful! But in our nutty society, the person who “keeps it together,” who’s “so brave,” and who “looks so great — you’d never know,” that’s who is applauded. Grief is not the opposite of faith. Mourning is not the opposite of hope. I believe that well-meaning Christians can try to hurry us out of our mourning because we make them uncomfortable. The Bible does not say to cheer up the bereaved, but rather to “mourn with those who mourn.” Christ does not say we grieve because we are deficient in faith, but rather, “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted [not rushed]” (Matthew 5:4).”

– Jennifer Saake (Hannah’s Hope: Seeking God’s Heart in the Midst of Infertility, Miscarriage, and Adoption Loss)

“Anyone that’s been in the place of wanting another child or wanting a child knows the disappointment, the pain, and the loss that you go through trying and struggling with fertility.”

– Nicole Kidman (Australia’s 60 Minutes, February 2011)

“Throughout my life, there were a few hard days. Days where even when I tried to be happy, my heart still cracked, and Mother’s Day was one of those. For others, it stood as a celebration. For me, it spoke of loss and failure.”

– Brittany C. Cherry (Disgrace)

“I was pregnant for the first time and I heard the heartbeat, which was the most beautiful music I ever heard in my life. I picked out names, I envisioned what my child would look like … I was feeling very maternal. I flew back to New York to get my check up — and no heartbeat. Literally the week before I went to the doctor, everything was fine, but there was no heartbeat. I went into the studio and wrote the saddest song I’ve ever written in my life. And it was actually the first song I wrote for my album. And it was the best form of therapy for me, because it was the saddest thing I’ve ever been through.”

– Beyonce (Life Is But a Dream, January 2013)

“People talk about the miracle of birth. No. There’s the miracle of conception. I did IVF, but nothing happened. So I began to think of adoption, and then I got pregnant. It was definitely a miracle.”

– Iman (Parade, May 2009)

“After the first miscarriage, I tried to take the attitude that it was my body’s way of telling me that this pregnancy wasn’t meant to be, and that it was better for everybody. But after the second one, it was really devastating. Four months is a lot of living with that little life in you — thinking about it, eating right for it, nurturing it and all of a sudden, it dies. After the second one, we decided to try in vitro, because both Peter and I felt we couldn’t handle another failure.”

– Christie Brinkley (Good Housekeeping, 1998)

“Meeting your children rather than giving birth to them, it’s as if, um, it’s — suspended animation. The gestational experience is gone. It’s as if everything else disappears for a moment, and the world goes silent and — I can’t explain it except to say that nothing else existed. I don’t remember anything but the blanket on the bed that they were lying on and my husband’s face and their faces and my son’s. It’s literally as if sound is sucked from the room. Time stands still. It’s so different, and equally extraordinary. I am very poor at describing it. But it’s amazing.”

– Sarah Jessica Parker (Vogue, April 2010)

“She told me the sex of these children, so now I’m realizing I have kids in a freezer. It makes it real when you know the sex. I was like, ‘What is happening?!’ So I called my mom and said, ‘Mom, you’re a grandma! Here’s what we’ve got in the freezer — don’t tell anybody. Isn’t this weird?’ It was the strangest call ever. Then I realized I have to do another IVF round because if I want two kids, the two good-quality ones could only end up yielding one baby, and I keep hearing stories about all these women who keep implanting embryos and they don’t take. I was so upset about the idea of another round, because it’s exhausting, physically and mentally.”

– Maria Menounos (Health, July 2016)

“It’s been really emotional. One doctor told me I would need my uterus removed after I had another baby — I could only have one more. One was like, ‘You should get a surrogate.’ The other one was like, ‘Oh, no, you’ll be fine.’ Then I called my doctor, and he’s like, ‘You know what? I believe — we’ll get through it.’ There are definitely times when I walked out [of the doctor’s office] hysterically crying, and other times when I was like, ‘OK, everything’s looking good — it’s going to be this month!’ The waiting and waiting has been a roller coaster.”

– Kim Kardashian (Glamour, July 2015)

You can definitely have children because your eggs are fine, your uterus is fine, it’s just your fallopian tubes are damaged. And I was like, first I was distraught, I was embarrassed, I was ashamed, I felt less than a woman. And he assured me that that was no way to feel and that you know, for a certain amount of thousands of dollars it could be fixed. And because I had the finances I never even thought twice about it. I was like, all right how many thousand? Okay, no problem, we’ll start doing it now. But it wasn’t until that I publicly spoke about it, that I realized how many women are in the same predicament as me where they actually can have children they just need an assist from medical procedures and they can’t because they are not financially stable enough to do it. And I think the percentage is actually 80% of women who can’t have children — it’s not because they can’t physically have children, it’s that they can’t afford to physically have children. And it was just weird to me that if you wanted to terminate a pregnancy, you could use your health insurance. However, if you wanted to conceive, health insurance didn’t cover that. So I’m looking at all of these politicians that claim they’re pro-life, and they want to eradicate women having the choice to terminate their pregnancies. But if you’re pro-life, why would you not set up something so women who can conceive and women who want to be mothers and women who want to have children can do so … I don’t feel like it should be taken away from you because of money. Like people put too much of a value on money as opposed to the value on life.”

– Remy Ma (2017 Essence Festival, June 2017)

“There’s a certain amount of shame that is placed on women who have perhaps chosen a career over starting a family younger. The penance for being a career woman is barrenness. You feel like you’re wearing a scarlet letter.”

– Gabrielle Union (Redbook)

“I said to the social worker “Would you stop me from having a child of my own?” Of course, they wouldn’t have been able to do that. I could well have had a child of my own, and there would be nothing they could have done about that. Anybody can have their own child. Doesn’t matter if they are drug abusers or prostitutes or paedophiles, but when you want to adopt they put you through hoops, like infertility makes you less capable of being a parent.”

– Caroline Overington (Ghost Child)

On my fertility journey , I’ve come to learn that hope is everything.

Hope is the thin line between pressing forward and reaching your goal or giving up and falling into despair and depression.

I hope that these quotes on infertility bring you hope and encouragement as you continue forward on this journey.

Trying To Conceive

22 Quotes About Infertility To Share With Someone Struggling

It can't take the sting away, but these words can help offer some solace.

Picture-perfect pregnancies are celebrated everywhere. Beautiful bellies and gorgeously glowing skin are on full display for all to see and admire. When it comes to the true reality of someone’s journey towards parenthood, though, those issues (like unsuccessfully trying to conceive or a having a miscarriage ) are often not spoken of. And it’s a shame, too, since talking about infertility helps reduce the stigma associated with it. So if you have a friend who has been struggling to have a baby, these infertility quotes just might offer some solace.

The more that infertility is a topic that isn’t discussed, the worse things become for the women (and their partners as well) try to come to terms with their battle to have a baby. “The reason it's so important to say something to a friend is because we have gone way too long with people not talking openly about infertility,” Ali Prato, co-founder of Fertility Rally , an online membership community, event platform, and content hub for anyone struggling to build their modern family, tells Romper. “It's a medical condition; it's nothing to be ashamed of.” In short, infertility is not your fault — it’s no one’s fault —and shouldn’t be treated as such. That’s why the more we openly talk about infertility, it offers support to those who might be silently struggling, and it helps people to gain perspective on stigmas that just aren’t true.

That’s why you should reach out to your friend who is struggling with infertility and let them know you’re there. Because what’s possibly worse than infertility is when no one acknowledges what you’re going through . “We as women need to lift each other up, not shame each other or make anyone going through infertility feel less than,” says Prato. “And the more we talk about this, the more future generations of women will know about fertility and infertility in general.”

As conversations surrounding infertility and TTC are becoming more commonplace, here’s how you can show a friend that you really care.

Infertility Quotes When You’re TTC

• “After a while, when you’re not successful, you start to associate the word ‘failure’ every time you pee on a stick and it doesn’t come out the right color. What starts out as a dream becomes a project that’s all-consuming — everywhere you look, women are pregnant, and every song on the radio seems like it’s all about being pregnant! It becomes a very frustrating, frightening place.” — Brooke Shields
• "At a certain point it had to almost become a job because it's way too emotional to live emotionally through that. So you just keep going and going and going, and if you really want something, you just make it happen. And you have all of these things where you go, 'Yeah, but I would never do that.’' Then, all the sudden, you're like, 'Hey, I'll do that. If it's for my family, I'll do anything.'" — Nancy Juvonen
• “I got some bad news today and didn't have anyone to share it with… but I guess I gotta tell someone. To all the women out there struggling with fertility, I feel ya. The universe works in mysterious ways and sometimes it all doesn't make sense... but I hope there's light about to shine through all the dark clouds." — Rebel Wilson
• “It’s so funny — when I was 23 years old, I used to tell myself, ‘In three years, I’m going to have kids.’ Then I turned 24. ‘In three years, I’m going to have kids.’ Every single year I kept saying that. And then after a while it’s like, ‘Okay, now I want to.’ And it’s not so easy…I’ve had some not happy moments with that, very traumatic moments. It’s difficult as you get older. It’s not something that can just happen.” — Tyra Banks

• "For three years, my body has been a prisoner of trying to get pregnant. I've either been about to go into an IVF cycle, in the middle of an IVF cycle, or coming out of an IVF cycle." — Gabrielle Union
• “Infertility is this huge emotional roller coaster. If you want in your heart more than anything to have a baby, it’s the hardest thing you will ever go through physically, emotionally, and financially.” – Cindy Margolis
• “I found that each time a test was negative, I stopped the dreaming and hoping for a while. Taking the test was a way of puncturing the balloons of hope because if I didn’t, they would lift and lift without any evidence, and their falling back down every month was too painful. Essentially, I took all these tests to keep myself from hoping, because the hoping was breaking my heart.” — Shauna Niequist, author of Bread and Wine: A Love Letter to Life Around the Table with Recipes

Hopeful Infertility Quotes

• “For everyone going through infertility and conception hell, please know it was not a straight line to either of my pregnancies. Sending you extra love.” — Anne Hathaway
• “Sometimes it’s hard to see the rainbow when there’s been endless days of rain.” — Two-Week Wait: Motherhood Lost and Found by Christina Greer
• “There are days worth living still, worth the pain of this life and the pain of their deaths. I guess I'm just asking you a favor, in the end: Don't give up before the future comes around that was meant for you, okay?” ― Tara Wine-Queen, author of Tenderness and Troubling Times: A Collection of Stories
• “What if infertility isn’t a war but an awakening? What if it’s not about death but about a renaissance?” ― Rekha Ramcharan, author of Manifesting Motherness: Healing from Infertility

Secondary Infertility Quotes

• “I didn’t think I’d be able to have a second child, and it’s been over seven years since my first pregnancy... We did try for a long time. It was hard. But I didn’t give up.” — Tia Mowry-Hardrict
• “Just because someone is blessed to have one child doesn’t mean that secondary infertility is an easy pill to swallow.” — Nikki Parnell
• “Anyone that’s been in the place of wanting another child or wanting a child knows the disappointment, the pain, and the loss that you go through trying and struggling with fertility.” — Nicole Kidman

Infertility Quotes That Just Get It

• “Fertility is not something you conquer. Rather maddeningly, there's no straight line between effort and reward.” ― Michelle Obama, author of Becoming
• “Like most women, I thought it would be easy once I decided to start a family. I was surprised that Mother Nature kept poking me in the eye, saying, ‘Nope, nope, nope.” – Nia Vardalos
• “It’s not that motherhood is out of reach, it’s that it’s just out of reach. It’s not that motherhood didn’t happen, it’s that it almost did and, in fact, still could. The difference between the grief of infertility and other reasons for mourning – the loss of a spouse, for example – is in that promise of ‘just,’ in ‘almost,’ in ‘still could.” – The Seed: Infertility Is a Feminist Issue by Alexandra Kimball
• “You start doing your research and realizing that the fertility rate for women drops considerably. And you’re like, “Oh my God, now I want to get pregnant, and now it’s a crazy time where I might not be able to get pregnant because I’m getting older and my eggs are aging and my uterus isn’t as fertile as it used to be and my loins are not where they used to be.” – Staceyann Chin
• “It is one thing, I was discovering, to think, ‘Maybe I won’t have kids,’ and quite another to be told, ‘Maybe you can’t.’ This is how impatience turns to desperation.” — Peggy Orenstein, author of Waiting for Daisy: A Tale of Two Continents, Three Religions, Five Infertility Doctors, an Oscar, an Atomic Bomb, a Romantic Night, and One Woman's Quest to Become a Mother
• “The world was selfish, unjust. How could so many undeserving people be given the opportunity to raise children they didn’t even want while so many worthy individuals didn’t get the chance?” ― Brittainy C. Cherry, author of Disgrace
• “Is there any point in breathing if this is what the world is asking me to face?’ You think to yourself. Somehow though, whether through madness or magic, you find a way to. You keep breathing even when you don’t think you can. You surprise yourself.” ― Jodi Sky Rogers, author of Mending Softly: Finding Hope & Healing After Ectopic Pregnancy Loss
• “Women often endure infertility, pregnancy, infant loss, miscarriages, and stillbirths in isolation, because while sadness is a socially palatable response to these often life-altering events, rage, frustration, jealousy, and guilt are not.” ― Soraya Chemaly, author of Rage Becomes Her: The Power of Women's Anger

It can be hard to find the words sometimes when someone you love is struggling with infertility. So speak from the heart, and know that by simply acknowledging what your loved one is going through, you’re opening the door not just for conversation and comfort, but ultimately helping to change how the world views the stigma surrounding infertility, too.

32 Infertility Quotes to Help You Stay Optimistic

• April 11, 2022

Reading or getting inspiration from infertility quotes can be a great way to find support during the tough journey of trying to conceive. When you’re going through infertility, it can feel like you’re alone in your struggles.

But that’s not true! You are surrounded by people who have been where you are now and have come out on the other side. 

In this blog post, we will share some inspirational infertility quotes from people who have battled infertility and won. We hope that these quotes will provide you with some insight and wisdom during your own journey.

What is Infertility?

Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected sex. If you’re under 35, it’s considered infertility if you’ve been trying for six months without success; twelve months if you’re over 35. There are many factors that can contribute to infertility, including age, weight, smoking, STDs, and more.

The quotes below are from people who have been through infertility and come out on the other side. We hope that these quotes will provide you with some insight and wisdom during your journey. Losing hope is not an option. 

Therefore, keep these infertility quotes in mind that the endless possibility of conceiving a child is always within reach. Use your own understanding to savor the experience and cherish what it is trying to teach you .

“I am learning to trust the journey even when I do not understand it.” — Mila Bron

This quote is relatable. After all, who can say that they always understand the journey? Life is full of surprises and detours. The best we can do is trust that the journey will eventually lead us to where we need to be.

Battling with infertility is one of the hardest challenges that people can face. There are so many worthy individuals out there who question their own health and are left wondering if conceiving a baby will remain just a wish or if a child’s conception is just within reach. However, hope will always be there. And it’s important to hold on to it.

“It’s hard to be positive when you’re trying to conceive, and nothing is happening. But if you give up, it will never happen. So every day, wake up and say today is the day my baby is born.” — Jillian Michaels

This quote from fitness guru Jillian Michaels is a great reminder to stay positive throughout the journey. It can be easy to get caught up in the negative emotions of infertility, but it’s important to remember that every day is a new opportunity for success.

Doubt kills even more dreams than failure ever will. Even though conceiving is a huge emotional roller coaster, making a conscious effort to keep trying and believe in anything- even miracles.

“Parenting begins when dreams are born, not when babies arrive.” — Suzy Kassem

This quote is an excellent reminder that parenting starts with the dream of having a child, not when the child is actually born. It’s important to cherish the dream and keep hope alive throughout the journey of infertility.

Sure, the journey can be long, tiring, and frustrating. But it’s also a journey that can be filled with so much love, hope, and joy. A woman trying to conceive overcomes hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates barriers, and faces doubts head-on.

“The greatest risk any of us will ever take is to be seen as we really are.” — Unknown

This quote is a reminder that being vulnerable and sharing our true selves with others is a brave act. It’s important to be open and honest about our infertility journey in order to receive the support we need from others.

To raise children begins with trying to conceive. After all, the journey of trying to conceive a child is one of the most significant life-altering events that parents will ever encounter. Like silent ephemeral shadows, doubt will make couples believe that they are not worthy individuals.

“I have always believed that one day, I will be a mother. I am not going to give up. I have too much faith.” — Beyoncé

Beyoncé is one of the most successful women in the world, and she’s also someone who has dealt with infertility. In this quote, she reminds us that we should never give up on our dreams. Even if it seems impossible, we must have faith that we will achieve them.

Always believe that you will be able to hold your baby’s tiny hand. A baby fills its parents’ world with so much happiness. Therefore, couples must endure infertility and the unique pain that comes with it. However, they must never lose hope.

“If you want something you’ve never had, you must be willing to do something you’ve never done.” — Unknown

This quote is a reminder that sometimes we have to step outside our comfort zones in order to achieve our goals. If you’re trying to conceive, there are many things you can do to increase your chances of success.

You may need to try new treatments or therapies. You may need to make lifestyle changes, such as losing weight or quitting smoking. Whatever it takes, remember that it will be worth it in the end.

“The moment you give up is the moment you let someone else win.” — Kobe Bryant

This quote is a reminder that giving up is not an option. You may have to face many challenges along your journey, but don’t forget what you’re fighting for. Remember that every obstacle is just another opportunity to show how strong and determined you are.

So never give up on your dreams of becoming a parent . If you’re struggling with infertility, know that you’re not alone. There are many others who understand what you’re going through and can offer support and advice.

These infertility quotes are proof that so many have been through the journey and have overcome it, too.

“Having a baby is supposed to be one of the happiest times of your life. But for too many women, it’s a time of anxiety, doubt, and disappointment.” – Sherry Ross

Infertility quotes like this hit home for so many infertile women out there. The journey to parenthood is not always an easy one, but it’s important to remember that you’re not alone in your struggles. There are others who understand exactly what you’re going through.

Women who have battled with infertility might have thought, at some point, that “All these tests, drugs, and procedures are a reminder that my body has failed me.” – Elizabeth Murray

It’s easy to feel like you’re you’re not good enough when you’re struggling with infertility. But it’s important to remember that your worth is not measured by your ability to have children. You are still an incredible human being, no matter what.

“You may have been through hell and back during your fertility journey, but don’t forget that you’re still standing. You are stronger than you know.” – Jodie Mesler

If you’ve been through infertility treatments or have experienced multiple pregnancy losses, it’s easy to feel like giving up. But don’t forget how strong you are. You’ve been through so much, and you’re still here.

Holding an actual child in your arms at the end of your fertility journey is an amazing feeling. But even if you don’t get to that point, know that you’ve tried everything you could have. You are not a failure.

“The ability to become pregnant and give birth is a gift, but not everyone receives this gift. And that’s OK.” – Brooke Smith

If you’re struggling with infertility, it’s important to remember that there are other ways to create a family. You can adopt, foster, or use a surrogate. There are so many options available to you.

No matter what your fertility journey looks like, know that you’re not alone. There are millions of people who understand what you’re going through. Reach out to them for help and support so that you can get through this tough time.

A few hard days and feelings of particular emptiness make a strong woman. More dreams will come true as women trust the process. Putting a marital relationship first is easy if women talk to their spouse, child, or friend about their struggles. After all, love recognizes no barriers.

“You are not alone on this journey. There are so many of us fighting alongside you.” – Brooke Smith

This is a sweet reminder that couples who are battling infertility are not alone. It is easy to feel isolated when you are going through something like this, but know that there are others out there who understand and support you.

“The most important thing is to keep an open mind and a positive attitude.” – Wendy Koop

An infertility diagnosis can be very overwhelming, but it’s important to try and stay positive. Who knows, maybe you’ll be one of the lucky ones who conceive easily after being diagnosed. The best form of love and support you can give yourself is to remain hopeful.

“Trying to conceive is tough enough, so don’t put extra pressure on yourselves.” – Jenny McCarthy

This is such an important point. Trying to conceive can be stressful enough as it is, so don’t add any additional pressure. Just relax and let nature take its course. Enhancing your child’s conception in this turbulent world will only come from a place of peace and love.

“Start each day with a grateful heart.” -Unknown

It’s so important to be grateful for what you have, even if it doesn’t seem like much at the moment. A grateful heart is a happy heart, and happiness is key when trying to conceive. When your mind is focused on all the good in your life, it’s easier to let go of the negative.

“I think it’s important to remember that just because someone is able to get pregnant, doesn’t mean they don’t understand what you’re going through.” – Jaclyn Johnson

Just because someone else may have had an easy time does not automatically mean that they do not understand the struggles that a barren woman is facing or the hardships that couples who are struggling to conceive are going through. A socially palatable discourse on infertility is still very much absent, and that erasure takes a toll.

“Your journey is not defined by your fertility or infertility. It is the sum total of your choices, your hopes, your dreams, and your sorrows.” – Heather Hennen

Remember that your worth is not determined by whether or not you can have children. You are still an amazing person with a rich life story, no matter what.

Do not dwell on motherhood lost because of infertility. Instead, focus on the motherhood you can be given through adoption, foster care, or other means. You are still a mom, and that is something to celebrate!

“The greatest challenge in life is discovering who you are. The second biggest is being happy with what you find.” – Soren Kierkegaard

This quote is a reminder that happiness comes from within. No matter what your fertility journey looks like, you can find happiness. It might just look different than what you originally planned.

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

This quote is a reminder that your strength comes from within. You are capable of anything you set your mind to, and this is especially true when it comes to your fertility journey.

“Everything happens for a reason.” – Unknown

There is a reason for everything, even if we may not understand it at the time. Maybe this infertility journey is happening so you can help others who are going through the same thing. Or maybe it’s happening so you can learn to appreciate your body and all it’s capable of in a different way. Whatever the reason, know that there is one.

“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.” – Rumi

This quote is a reminder that you are powerful and strong. No matter how small you feel in this moment, know that you have the strength to get through it.

“Every storm runs out of rain.” – Gary Allan

This quote is a reminder that this, too, shall pass. The hard times don’t last forever, and eventually, you’ll come out on the other side.

This quote reminds us that the only thing that matters is what’s going on inside of you. Keep your head up and focus on your own journey.

“Even miracles take a little time.” – Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother

This is a reminder that sometimes, even when we want something so badly, it takes time. Be patient and believe in yourself.

“The hardest thing to do is watch someone do what you can’t do.” – Unknown

This quote tells us that it’s hard to see someone else doing something that you can’t do. Try to be happy for them and focus on your own journey. Just believe that you will get your miracle, too.

“Every morning we are born again. What we do today matters most.” -Unknown

Each day is a new opportunity to start fresh. So make today count and don’t give up on your dreams. You never know when your miracle might happen.

“Don’t be afraid to stand for what you believe in, even if it means standing alone.” – Unknown

This quote is a reminder that you should never give up on your dreams and what you believe in. Even if it’s hard, don’t be afraid to stand up for what you want.

“I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.” -Jimmy Dean

This quote is a reminder that no matter what life throws at you, you can always adjust and find a way to reach your goals. You have to be flexible and be willing to change direction if needed.

“Start with one step, just one. And then take the next one and keep going that way.” – Mary Manin Morrissey

This quote reminds us that when you are feeling overwhelmed, just take things one step at a time. You don’t have to do everything all at once. Just start with one thing and then move on to the next.

“You are strong enough to weather any storm.” – Unknown

You are strong enough to handle anything that comes your way. Focus on your strength and believe in yourself. Eventually, you will be able to overcome anything.

“The pain you feel today is the strength you feel tomorrow.” – Unknown

This is a reminder that the pain you are feeling today is only making you stronger. It might be hard to see it now, but it will make you stronger in the long run. So don’t give up and keep fighting. Believe that everything will fall into place someday.

“Don’t give up on your dreams.” – Unknown

No matter how hard things seem, don’t give up on your dreams. If you keep fighting, eventually you will achieve them. So never give up and always believe in yourself.

“The best things in life are worth fighting for.” – Unknown

This quote is a reminder that the best things in life are worth fighting for. So don’t give up on your dreams and never give up on yourself. You are worth it and you can do it! Doubt is a frightening place to be in. Therefore, do not let yourself get stuck in it.

35 Amazing Quotes on Fertility To Read Right Now

Getting pregnant isn’t as easy as they made it seem in grade school. So, I want to share some amazing quotes on fertility you can read right now to encourage and inspire you along this really difficult road to your baby.

I had my first health education class in fifth grade, where they explained what your menstrual period was and showed pictures of what it would look like if you were to have sex and get an STD.

Fun, right?

They preached abstinence because of the impending threat that you’d get pregnant .

But then I got married, and I waited with my husband until our wedding night. We decided 6 months later that we were ready for kids, and nothing.

The immediate pregnancy that followed sec was a lie they fed to me in fifth grade.

Unfortunately, this is the case for a huge portion of women who desire to get pregnant.

I want to share with you some encouraging quotes for your fertility journey. I’ll also some humor and some motivation to help you along your own fertility journey.

Words can be powerful. Coming from a book publishing background, I truly believe in the power of words to heal and inspire . Whether you see yourself for the first time in a character in a book, or read someone else’s blog and finally feel a little bit less alone, words have the ability to get us through even the toughest of times. 

When I was going through infertility, if I was having a particularly rough day I would look up quotes from my favorite authors for words to help remind me that I was strong enough to get to the other side--if I could just take it one day, and one step, at a time. I’ve been a bit nostalgic for my own journey recently, so I thought I would revisit some of the authors, words, and books that got me through some of my darkest moments. 

For me, books have always been an escape from reality. Because of that, I mostly read fiction. I love visiting a new world with every new book I pick up, but every once in a while an author will come along with a memoir that makes my breath catch in my throat and stay up way past my bedtime reading. Cheryl Strayed was the first author to do that for me, and I will forever be grateful for her sharing her story and the important lessons her books have taught me about life, courage, and healing. 

On accepting what you can’t control—

“You don’t have a right to the cards you believe you should have been dealt with. You have an obligation to play the hell out of the ones you’re holding.” —Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things

“Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you'll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you'll hold on really hard and realize there is no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room.” —Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things

"I knew that if I allowed fear to overtake me, my journey was doomed. Fear, to a great extent, is born of a story we tell ourselves, and so I chose to tell myself a different story from the one women are told. I decided I was safe. I was strong. I was brave. Nothing could vanquish me." —Cheryl Strayed, Wild

On healing—.

“Nobody will protect you from your suffering. You can't cry it away or eat it away or starve it away or walk it away or punch it away or even therapy it away. It's just there, and you have to survive it. You have to endure it. You have to live through it and love it and move on and be better for it and run as far as you can in the direction of your best and happiest dreams across the bridge that was built by your own desire to heal.” —Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things

"When you recognize that you will thrive not in spite of your losses and sorrows, but because of them, that you would not have chosen the things that happened in your life, but you are grateful for them, that you will hold the empty bowls eternally in your hands, but you also have the capacity to fill them? THE WORD FOR THAT IS HEALING." — Cheryl Strayed, Brave Enough

Needless to say, if you haven’t read Cheryl Strayed’s books, Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things , what are you waiting for?! WILD is her unforgettable memoir about the grief of losing her mother, her decision to hike the Pacific Crest Trail alone, and her physical and emotional journey to healing (it’s also a movie starring Reese Witherspoon). Tiny Beautiful Things is a compilation of pieces from Cheryl Strayed’s advice column in The Rumpus called Dear Sugar . It will make you cry big, chunky tears, but it will also leave you feeling endlessly hopeful. I can’t recommend either of them enough; they truly changed my life when I read them.

Then there’s Glennon Doyle. I recently read her latest book Untamed , and regardless of all the hype, it did not disappoint. In fact, after I finished it, I wanted to give it to every single solitary woman in my life. In Untamed , Glennon gives women permission to be unapologetically themselves, and she does it so eloquently and with poignant examples from her own life. It’s a message we all need, especially now, and no matter how in tune with ourselves we may think we already are. 

On being human—

"Being human is not hard because you're doing it wrong, it's hard because you're doing it right. You will never change the fact that being human is hard, so you must change your idea that it was ever supposed to be easy." —Glennon Doyle, Untamed

On letting yourself feel all of the feelings—

Be the expert in you.

"It’s okay to feel all of the stuff you’re feeling. You’re just becoming human again. You’re not doing life wrong; you’re doing it right. If there’s any secret you’re missing, it’s that doing it right is just really hard. Feeling all your feelings is hard, but that’s what they’re for. Feelings are for feeling. All of them. Even the hard ones. The secret is that you’re doing it right and that doing it right hurts sometimes.” —Glennon Doyle, Untamed

"Grief shatters. If you let yourself shatter and then you put yourself back together, piece by piece, you wake up one day and realize that you have been completely reassembled." —Glennon Doyle, Untamed

On strength—

"What I thought would kill me, didn’t. Every time I said to myself: I can’t take this anymore—I was wrong. The truth was that I could and did take it all—and I kept surviving. Surviving, again and again, made me less afraid of myself, of other people, of life." —Glennon Doyle, Untamed

Infertility is hard. It’s scary and full of what-ifs. But what these authors and their words have taught me is that life isn’t supposed to be easy. The strongest people aren’t that way because their life has always been perfect; often, the complete opposite is true. The important thing is how you deal with the cards you are dealt. That doesn’t mean you can’t have bad days. In fact, you should feel ALL of the feelings; that’s how you know you’re doing it right. Remember, the only way out is through. You’ve survived 100% of your worst days; you can survive this, too.

• “After a while, when you’re not successful, you start to associate the word ‘failure’ every time you pee on a stick and it doesn’t come out the right colour.

• “Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I’ll try again tomorrow.” — Mary Anne Radmacher

I picked out names; I envisioned what my child would look like… I was feeling very maternal. I flew back to New York to get my check up — and no heartbeat. Literally the week before I went to the doctor, everything was fine, but there was no heartbeat. I went into the studio and wrote the saddest song I’ve ever written in my life. And it was actually the first song I wrote for my album. And it was the best form of therapy for me because it was the saddest thing I’ve ever been through.” — Beyonce (Life Is But a Dream, January 2013)
• “Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.” — Suzy Kassem

Essentially, I took all these tests to keep myself from hoping, because the hoping was breaking my heart.” — Shauna Niequist (Bread and Wine: A Love Letter to Life Around the Table with Recipes)

• “Parenting begins the moment you make any conscious effort to care for your own health in preparation for enhancing your child’s conception.” — Carista Luminare-Rosen
• “The English language lacks the words to mourn an absence. For the loss of a parent, grandparent, spouse, child or friend, we have all manner of words and phrases, some helpful, some not. Still, we are conditioned to say something, even if it is only “I’m sorry for your loss.” But for an absence, for someone who was never there at all, we are wordless to capture that particular emptiness. For those who deeply want children and are denied them, those missing babies hover like silent ephemeral shadows over their lives. Who can describe the feel of a tiny hand that is never held?” — Laura Bush
• “Life is tough, my darling, but so are you.” — Stephanie Bennett-Henry

• “Anyone that’s been in the place of wanting another child or wanting a child knows the disappointment, the pain, and the loss that you go through trying and struggling with fertility.” — Nicole Kidman
• “Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.” — Maya Angelou
• “The life an infertile person seeks comes to her not by accident and not by fate but by hard-fought choices. How to put together the portfolio of photographs. How to answer at the home study.” — Belle Boggs

Your journey to parenthood might be full of challenges, but do not lose hope. The moment you feel low, read these quotes to fill positivity in you. On your fertility journey, it is important to realize that hope is everything. There’s a thin line between giving up and pressing forward to reaching your goal.

Top 10 Inspiring Infertility Quotes To Help Motivate Your Journey

10 inspiring infertility quotes to help motivate your journey.

Infertility affects over 48 million couples worldwide . While many expectant mothers share beautiful photos of their pregnancy across their social media, there are millions of women who are struggling silently with their partners as they try to conceive. It is a journey that many women are on but very few openly discuss. Struggling with infertility can feel very lonely and isolating as it can be too painful to share your experiences with friends and family.

It’s important to remember that you are not alone. Many women have walked the path you’re on today, and so many are on it with you right now. While it may often feel like all hope is lost, know that there are so many women who have been in your shoes that are now happy mothers after conceiving their beautiful miracle.

If you’re in need of a bit of inspiration, comfort, or encouragement, it is our hope that the following fertility quotes will lift your spirits and remind you that you are not alone on this journey.

1. Even miracles take a little time.

Your pregnancy journey may be taking longer than you’d hoped, but that doesn’t always mean it won’t happen at all. It’s so important to be kind to yourself and to remember that the most wonderful miracles take time. It’s not uncommon for couples to take over two years to conceive , with much trial and error along the way. Give yourself grace, all good things take time.

2.What feels like the end is often the beginning.

Month after month of negative pregnancy tests can start to weigh on a woman’s heart. Finding out that you may not be able to conceive naturally can often feel like the end. If you’re starting to feel like all hope is lost, know that this could be the beginning of a new part of your journey. There are so many different types of medicine and natural treatments  that couples can try on their journey to pregnancy, so the end of one treatment could be the beginning of the one that brings you your miracle.

3.Forget all the reasons it won’t work, and believe the one reason it will work.

Many couples focus on the many reasons they can’t get pregnant and let those reasons cloud the rest of their journey. Remember that all you need is one successful attempt. One successful treatment. Instead of thinking of the reasons why you can’t conceive, believe in your hearts that you will find the one treatment that will work for you.

Infertility quotes 4.If plan ‘A’ fails, remember that you have 25 letters left.

There are so many different types of fertility treatments available to women today that there is truly never a reason to give up hope. There is an entire world of natural and holistic fertility treatments available for couples as well such as acupuncture that can be used in conjunction with IVF or IUI  to help achieve success.

Infertility quotes 5.Trust the timing of your life.

Many couples try for months or even years to get pregnant. For whatever reason, after they stop trying and discontinue fertility treatments, their miracle comes. Life has a strange way of bringing us exactly what we want when we least expect it so trust the timing of your life to bring you your child when the moment is right.

Infertility quotes 6.The greater the storm, the brighter the rainbow

The journey of infertility can be challenging to say the least. It can be full of pain and tears, but there are moments where there will be glimpses of hope shining through that dark cloud. The sun will shine again on your fertility journey and there will be a beautiful and bright rainbow at the end.

Infertility quotes 7.Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it.

The deeper you get into fertility treatments, the harder it becomes not to have negative thoughts about the future and what is going on within your body. The road of endless fertility treatments and doctor visits can feel daunting and could even deter some couples from pursuing their pregnancy dreams. If this is genuinely something you both want, don’t let the length of the journey turn you away from pursuing that dream.

Infertility quotes 8.It’s hard to wait around for something you know might never happen; it’s even harder to give up when you know it’s everything you want.

No matter how difficult it can be to continue trying month after month to conceive, if your heart is telling you to keep going and not to give up, then you’re on the right path.

Infertility quotes 9.Difficult roads lead to beautiful destinations.

The ache of not knowing if you’ll ever be able to conceive can seem unbearable at times. The road can be as long as it is difficult, but the end result will be so much more beautiful and filled with love.

Infertility quotes 10.The moment you are ready to quit is usually the moment right before the miracle happens.

The moment couples feel like giving up is often right when the miracle of pregnancy will occur. It’s almost as if once the body is given a break from the stress of trying over and over again that it finally opens itself up to a successful conception.

“A blessed home is not a home full of kids, but a home where there is peace, harmony and understanding.” – Michael Bassey Johnson

“After the first miscarriage, I tried to take the attitude that it was my body’s way of telling me that this pregnancy wasn’t meant to be, and that it was better for everybody. But after the second one, it was really devastating. Four months is a lot of living with that little life in you — thinking about it, eating right for it, nurturing it and all of a sudden, it dies. After the second one, we decided to try in vitro, because both Peter and I felt we couldn’t handle another failure.” – Christie Brinkley

These infertility quotes serve as a reminder that we are all fighting our own battles, and that no matter the outcome, hope is often the strongest weapon we have. Whether you are just starting your infertility journey or have been struggling with it for years, remember to be kind to yourself and keep the hope. You do not have to give up on your dream of becoming a mother, even when it may seem like an impossible goal. Sometimes, you have to let go of the vision you originally had and let things happen a bit differently. Do not forget to take care of yourself, be kind to yourself, and remember that miracles do take time. It is important to keep the faith and trust in yourself during your infertility journey. No matter how hard it may be, never lose hope!

Infertility Quotes for Hope and Encouragement

It’s very, very easy to lose hope when you’re battling infertility. Sometimes, you just need to take a break from reading statistics and TTC forums, and read some feel-good infertility quotes instead.

When I was going through my own infertility journey , I know the emotional toll it took was even larger than the physical toll.

From the monthly reminders of failure from Aunt Flo, to the seemingly daily pregnancy announcements on Facebook, to the obliviously insensitive questions about your family plans… the hits never stop coming.

How to Cope with Infertility

Learning to cope with infertility is honestly a lifelong battle. I have two miracle babies, and I still wouldn’t say I’m “over” my infertility struggle. It’s affected me in more ways than I even realize.

But one thing I have learned is that the negativity will crush you, if you let it. I know, it’s easier said than done to just not feel sadness or anger or doubt. And that’s not what I’m saying – I actually think it’s important to feel all those things!

However, you also need to do your best to feel the good things. Let yourself feel hopeful for a new cycle. Let yourself be excited about the possibilities of a new treatment plan. Let yourself take relief in a month off of fertility treatments.

Because if you don’t let the light in, the darkness will suffocate you, and your future baby – who is coming, some day, some way, some how – needs your bright light.

Find your Infertility Mantra

One thing that always helps me hold on to a glimmer of light is having a mantra, quote, song lyric, or image to hold onto. I print it out and stick it on a wall, or write it on a post-it note next to my computer screen, or scribble it on my bathroom mirror using a dry-erase marker.

Wherever I put it, I make sure it’s in a place that I’ll see it every day, preferably multiple times throughout the day.

When you start to feel that negativity sinking in, find your mantra and read it.

Read it again, and again, and again, if you have to… until you start to believe it.

These are a few of the infertility quotes that helped me throughout my 2+ year journey – I hope they’re able to bring you some comfort and hope, too!

Infertility Quotes for Perseverance

“You were given this mountain to show others it can be moved.”

This quote has really spoken to me from early on in my journey. It gave me comfort to know that my struggle had a higher purpose, and that others could someday benefit from what I experienced and learned.

And as soon as I started opening up about my infertility struggles, it really came to life. So many people started reaching out to me, letting me know they were going through it too, and asking for advice or references.

Ultimately, it’s what led to the creation of my Infertility Guidebook – I wanted to share all my knowledge of how to move this seemingly impenetrable mountain.

“The greater the storm, the brighter the rainbow.”

You can weather this storm, and you will be so much better off for it afterwards, I promise.

And trust me, nothing will compare to how bright that rainbow is after it’s over!

Infertility Quotes for Hope

“Do not lose hope. For after the storm, there is sunshine.”

You know those big thunderstorms that roll in quickly, darken the sky, and make it feel like nightfall even though it’s the middle of the day?

And then, just as quickly as they begin – they end. And the sunshine breaks through.

And after all the fear, all the thunder, all the darkness… that sunshine is even brighter than you remember it being. And before you know it, the warmth returns, the air feels crisp, and that storm is just a memory.

“Even miracles take a little bit of time.” – Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother

Who says Disney princess movies are just for little kids? We could all use a fairy godmother during our darkest days, and Cinderella’s doesn’t disappoint.

While she can’t “bippity boppity boo” us a baby, she can remind us that the best things in life are worth waiting for.

Religious Quotes for Infertility Support

“I will not cause pain without allowing something new to be born. ” – Isaiah 66:9

If you’re a Christian, I highly recommend you lean on prayer and the Bible for support. It was my greatest source of comfort throughout my journey, and it strengthened my relationship with God so much.

This is one of my favorite Bible verses for infertility, because it’s a great reminder than God is good. He will not cause us pain frivolously. We just have to wait and see what’s to come.

“She believed in His plan, even she could not see His path.”

This quote may not be directly from the Bible, but it is a lesson God has shown me repeatedly throughout my life – to trust in His plan, even when I can’t see the full picture.

In hindsight, it’s always easy to see why you were led down a certain path or went through a particular struggle, and how you ended up better off as a result.

If we can just remember that purpose while we’re going through it, we may save ourselves a little bit of angst.

I hope these quotes are able to bring you a little peace, comfort, hope, or encouragement if you’re struggling with infertility. Feel free to print them for yourself, save them as a phone background, share them on your Pinterest boards… wherever you find them useful.

And of course, let me know the quotes that have helped you through your struggles in the comments! I’d love to add to this list over time.

13 Powerful Quotes On Infertility & IVF Journey

Infertility and IVF is one journey that can get extremely tough to handle. Alongwith mental, physical, financial and social trauma pain of infertility becomes almost unbearable. The couples and, especially women oscillate between depression and hope. Whereas depression is natural, excess of ti can actually be detrimental to your infertility medical condition. More depression = More hormonal imbalance = Prolonged infertility. Thus, we come with inspiration in the form of quotes on infertility that will keep you going even when it gets dark and scary. Remember, it is the darkest hour just before the dawn is about to break 🙂

Believe in yourself and stay strong. This infertility journey will test your patience to the limits. Depression, feeling low and negative is natural. But, remember to come out of it soon, accept it with dignity and keep moving ahead.

This powerful quote on infertility helps us resolve the biggest challenge - staying positive. Repeat this healing affirmation atleast 5 times before going to bed and see how you feel fresh and light when you wake up.

Maintain a mental balance, control your mood swings, and open your arms and mind to new thoughts so that you can analyze your infertility case or IVF failure properly thus facilitating correct decisions. In my blog , Be The Man , I talk about how you, especially women have to take charge of the situation and resolve their infertility problem like a detective solves his crime case.

A disturbed mind will surely deter the functioning of the body. In infertility and IVF cases hormones play an important role in achieving success. Mind plays games with your hormone levels. So, it is extremely important that you control your mind and not let it go astray. 9 way to prepare yourself for IVF is a great article that lays down commonly faced problems during IVF or infertility journey and practical solutions to manage infertility better.

Nobody and nothing external can make you happy. You might think shopping or going to spa is therapeutic and will make you happy. But, this sort of happiness is shallow. Real happiness comes from inside. And, no one can disturb it without your knowledge. Even if inner happiness gets disturbed momentarily then try to bring it back by repeating this quote on infertility that hits it at the very cause of it. No unhappiness = No infertility.

Don’t undermine the importance of peace and happiness. Accept what life has thrown at you.

A lot of women question their self-worth and become victim of low self-esteem. This, in most cases leads to severe depression or even attempt to suicide. Don’t let that happen to yourself.

These powerful quotes on infertility and IVF journey gives you hope and strength when the going gets tough. Hold on, have faith on yourself and soon you will get what you want - a fulfilling, happy and peaceful life.

7 Inspirational Quotes About IVF

20 Nov by Erika

Whenever you are going through tough times, or facing some of life’s greatest challenges , a simple quote or hearing the right expression at just the right time can make all the difference. For that reason, we thought it would be nice to collect a few of our favorite quotes about IVF and infertility. Some of them are spoken by IVF experts, others are the heartfelt sentiments from individuals such as yourselves.

7 of Our Favorite Quotes About IVF and Fertility

We hope that at least one of them will strike a chord with you and help you to keep your chin up when the going gets rough or encourage you to pursue the next step in your fertility journey if you are needing a little extra inspiration.

• “ The children we bring into the world are small replicas of ourselves and our husbands; the pride and joy of grandfathers and grandmothers. We dream of being mothers, and for most of us that dreams are realised naturally. For this is the Miracle of Life .” – Azelene Williams , Author of the book INFERTILITY Road to Hell and Back Perhaps this quote is the one women and couples pursuing IVF and other fertility should have on a placard pinned to their chests. When others try to encourage adopting, a wonderful option if you feel it’s right for you , it will give them an idea of why – for now – having a baby that is genetically as well as emotionally yours is so important.
• “ The difficulty of IVF or of any fertility issues is the hope and the shattered hope, the dream that it might happen this time and then it doesn’t happen .” – Brooke Shields
• “Fall seven times, stand up eight .” – A Japanese proverb.You will become a parent, if that is your heart’s desire. Becoming a parent means watching your baby, and then child, be willing to fall down and stand right back up. You can be his or her own best example with the patience and discipline you begin cultivating through your IVF journey.
• “Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will. ” ~ Dr. Robert Anthony
• “ Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience .” – Ralph Waldo Emerson.Oh, this can be a hard one to hear. How often do you have to hear advice on being patient? However, this one is special because it reminds us that fertility is a natural process, even in its most controlled environment. It often takes patience and courage you never knew you had before your sacrifices will be rewarded.
• “ I have enough experience — in fact, we all do — to recognize that a positive HPT doesn’t guarantee anything, not even a decent number on a quantitative blood test.  Believe me, of that I am painfully and queasily aware.  I am about five minutes pregnant, the littlest bit, and from here anything could happen…….But just as anything bad could happen at this point, so could anything good. ” – Julie Robicheax

And it did! Julie and her husband Paul later delivered their healthy baby boy, Charlie. You can read her blog, titled “ A Little Pregnant ,” which chronicles their experiences through infertility, IFV, pregnancy and parenthood.

When someone is struggling with infertility, it’s best to respond with empathy, such as “This must be so tough, I’m so sorry” or “I know this hurts. I care for you and I’m here for you on this journey”.

Other things you can say are, “What can I do to help?”, “I’m always here for you.” or “How are you doing this week?”.

Checking in with your friends and family and reminding them that you care are the best things to do when someone is living with infertility.

You can also send them a note on Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or other milestones that may be more challenging for them.

Choose one of our infertility quotes to include in your message or card.

The infertility symbol is a pineapple because it is a powerful shape that reminds women to stand tall and strong while staying sweet and loving on the inside.

Women living with infertility might wear pineapples but so do family and friends who want to show support and solidarity.

Pineapples have been thought to help with the implementation of your embryo transfer.

But this theory is more anecdotal than scientific.

You can find pineapples on clothing, apparel, jewelry, and more.

Infertility tests range in cost from $50 for semen analysis to $400 for blood tests, though costs can reach up to $1,000 in some geographic areas for basic infertility information on hormone levels, sperm, and ovarian reserves.

Check with your primary care provider or OB-GYN for the estimated costs in your area.

You can prove infertility through a variety of tests including semen analysis, hormone testing, genetic testing , ovulation testing, hysterosalpingography, ovarian reserve testing , and imaging.

Other procedures include testicular biopsy, hysteroscopy, and laparoscopy, although these are less common methods.

If you have questions about your fertility, talk with your primary care physician or OB/GYN to discuss the next steps and possible test options.

No matter where you’re at in your fertility journey, know that you are surrounded by a community of support.

You are not alone.

• “We all slip somewhere near in space, but almost never cross paths. It is a beautiful, well-groomed woman standing at the counter and selling jewelry to you. It is a girl running a flower stall. It is your neighbor who greets you daily in the lift. It is a woman who works with you in an office. It is your French teacher. It is an Instagram girl who moved to live by the sea. It is the girl who sat next to you in the underground. It is a woman who just walked past you on the street. It is a relative with whom you haven’t been speaking for ten years. These infertile women are among us. This woman is me.” ‒ Karina Savaryna, Not Pregnant

Infertility Hurts Quotes: Finding Solace in Shared Experiences

What is infertility hurts quotes?

Infertility hurts quotes is a collection of poignant and relatable statements that express the emotional pain and anguish experienced by individuals struggling with infertility. These quotes serve as a way to validate the feelings of those going through this challenging journey, offering solace and understanding.

They capture the frustration, disappointments, and heartache that can accompany infertility, providing a sense of solidarity for those who feel isolated in their struggle. Infertility hurts quotes often resonate with individuals experiencing fertility issues, reminding them that they are not alone in their pain.

Understanding the Emotional Pain: Infertility Hurts Quotes Explained

Infertility is a deeply personal and often agonizing journey that many individuals and couples face. The emotional impact of infertility can be overwhelming, leaving people feeling isolated, broken-hearted, and even questioning their self-worth. While words may seem inadequate to describe the intensity of this pain , there are quotes that beautifully capture the essence of what it feels like to experience infertility. In this blog post, we will delve into these quotes to gain a deeper understanding of the emotional pain associated with infertility.

1. “The sorrow we feel when we lose a loved one is different from the sorrow experienced during infertility.” – Unknown

This quote highlights the unique nature of infertility grief. While both types of loss invoke immense sadness, the anguish felt by those struggling with infertility is distinct. It stems from witnessing an unfulfilled desire for something so fundamental as bringing life into the world. This sorrow lingers indefinitely, adding layers of complexity to an already delicate situation.

2. “Infertility: A feeling akin to standing before a closed door while everyone else gets handed keys.” – Sandra Kring

For many individuals coping with infertility, this quote resonates deeply; it embodies the sensation of being left out or excluded from something considered natural or taken for granted by others. Watching friends and family effortlessly conceive can magnify feelings of inadequacy and intensify the sense of being left behind.

3. “Infertility is a diagnosable medical condition that requires treatment just like any other ailment; however, society treats it as if it’s a personal failure.” – Unknown

This quote shines light on society’s often misguided perception towards infertility by emphasizing that it is not merely an outcome but rather a medical condition deserving empathy and support. Unfortunately, societal stigmas surrounding fertility struggles perpetuate shame and guilt within individuals already grappling with feelings of inadequacy.

4. “Infertility is like doing cardio in mud. It takes everything you have, leaves no room for progress, and it’s exhausting.” – Unknown

Comparing infertility to doing cardio in mud conveys the physical and emotional exhaustion experienced by individuals navigating fertility challenges. It illustrates the grueling nature of continually hoping, trying, and oftentimes failing to conceive. This quote encapsulates the overwhelming drain on a person ‘s energy, both physically and mentally.

5. “Infertility is experiencing a thousand heartbreaks while still trying to retain hope for one miracle.” – Unknown

Describing infertility as a series of heartbreaks amplifies the repetitive disappointment that accompanies failed attempts at conception. Each negative pregnancy test or unsuccessful fertility treatment can feel like another blow to an already fragile emotional state. Despite these repeated setbacks, individuals facing infertility must continuously hold onto hope for that one miraculous chance at parenthood.

6. “The strength required to endure infertility treatments is often overshadowed by the courage it takes to decide when enough is enough.” – Unknown

Choosing when to stop pursuing infertility treatments requires an extraordinary level of courage and self-reflection. This quote acknowledges the immense strength it takes to make such a difficult decision—a decision that may involve accepting a different path towards building a family or embracing a child-free life.

How Infertility Takes an Emotional Toll: Unveiling the Impact through Quotes

Infertility is a challenging journey that affects millions of couples worldwide. It’s a roller coaster ride filled with hope, disappointment, and emotional turmoil . While the physical aspects of infertility are well-known, its profound impact on our emotional well-being often remains hidden beneath the surface. In this blog post, we aim to shed light on how infertility takes an emotional toll by revealing its true impact through poignant quotes from those who have experienced it firsthand.

1. “Every negative pregnancy test feels like a personal failure.” – Anonymous

Many people don’t realize just how much weight each negative pregnancy test carries for those struggling with infertility. It’s not just a disappointment; it’s a blow to their self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy. The inability to conceive can begin to erode one’s sense of self-worth over time.

2. “The constant cycle of hope and heartbreak is exhausting.” – Sarah, 34

Infertility treatments often involve repeated attempts and continuous disappointments. The process becomes emotionally draining as hopes soar with every new treatment or approach, only to be crushed when it doesn’t lead to success. This rollercoaster of emotions can leave individuals feeling exhausted and emotionally fragile.

3. “Seeing friends effortlessly start families while we struggle feels like a knife in the heart.” – Mark, 38

One of the most difficult aspects of infertility is witnessing others achieve what you desire so deeply – parenthood – seemingly without any obstacles or effort. Watching friends or family members easily conceive and start their families can trigger intense feelings of jealousy, pain, and isolation that leave individuals experiencing fertility issues questioning their own worthiness.

4. “It’s challenging to maintain intimacy when sex becomes solely about procreation.” – Jenny, 31

For couples struggling with infertility, sex can quickly lose its joyous spontaneity and become overshadowed by the pressure to conceive. The once intimate act becomes mechanical and solely focused on procreation, leading to strained relationships and increased emotional distance.

5. “It feels like our dreams are held hostage by fertility treatments.” – David, 40

Infertility often puts couples’ lives on hold as they embark on treatments that consume their time, energy, and finances. The desire to become parents can become an all-consuming obsession, impacting careers, hobbies, and personal goals . The feeling that their dreams are at the mercy of medical interventions brings about a sense of loss of control and frustration.

6. “Explaining why we don’t have children is emotionally exhausting.” – Lisa, 35

Living in a society that places great emphasis on traditional family structures can be incredibly challenging for those who cannot conceive or choose not to pursue invasive fertility treatments. Constantly having to explain one’s inability to have children takes an emotional toll, leaving individuals feeling judged or excluded from societal norms.

7. “Even though it’s been years since we stopped trying, the grief remains.” – John, 42

Infertility doesn’t end with unsuccessful attempts or the decision to stop seeking treatment; its profound impact lingers long after. The grief associated with unfulfilled parenthood remains present long-term, as individuals navigate through milestones such as baby showers or family gatherings that serve as constant reminders of what they couldn’t achieve.

In conclusion, infertility takes a significant emotional toll on individuals and couples struggling with it. Every negative pregnancy test chips away at self-esteem while hope juxtaposed with disappointment becomes exhausting. Social comparisons are often painful reminders of what remains elusive; intimacy becomes strained under the weight of procreation goals; dreams feel held hostage by fertility treatments while explaining childlessness burdensome. Even when options run out or pursuits cease – the heartache prevails for years to come. The emotional impact of infertility should never be underestimated or overlooked but treated with empathy and understanding throughout this challenging journey towards parenthood.

In moments of doubt, this quote serves as a gentle reminder that those struggling with infertility possess an inner strength and resilience that can combat the negative thoughts associated with the journey.

This witty quote playfully suggests that infertility may be an unexpected teacher of patience, requiring individuals to endure the unpredictable timeline of treatments or conception attempts.

Answering Your Questions about the Emotional Side of Infertility Hurts Quotes

Title: Answering Your Questions about the Emotional Side of Infertility: Unveiling the Profound Impact, Healing Process, and Resilience through Hurts Quotes

Introduction: Infertility is an incredibly challenging journey that takes couples on an emotional rollercoaster. The heartache, disappointment, and longing experienced during this time can be overwhelming. While many discuss the physical aspects of infertility, understanding its profound emotional impact remains equally significant. In this blog post, we aim to delve into this topic further by exploring the intricate connection between infertility and hurts quotes. Join us as we unravel the power of newfound strength, resilience, and healing that can emerge from acknowledging these emotions .

1. The Complexity of Emotions: Facing infertility brings forth a torrent of complex emotions—grief, anger, guilt, envy. Each individual’s experience is unique; however, it’s essential to remember that these feelings are completely valid. Hurts quotes offer a way to articulate these deep emotions in a concise yet powerful manner. By finding relatable quotes that reflect our struggles accurately, we create a language for our pain .

2. The Power of Validation: Infertility can often make individuals feel isolated or misunderstood by those around them who haven’t experienced it themselves. Hearing phrases like “just relax” or “it will happen when it’s meant to” may inadvertently leave individuals feeling invalidated or dismissed. Sharing hurts quotes not only helps individuals find solace in knowing they are not alone but also provides validation for their experiences.

3. Finding Strength in Shared Experiences: Infertility often prompts individuals to seek support groups or online communities where they can connect with others going through similar struggles. Hurts quotes become an invaluable resource within these spaces as they resonate deeply with others experiencing identical emotions — creating bonds built on shared experiences and empathy.

4. Catharsis and Emotional Release: The process of infertility treatment often involves suppressing emotions due to its medical nature – focusing primarily on the physical aspect. Hurts quotes provide an outlet for individuals to release their pent-up emotions, allowing them to acknowledge and embrace what they’re going through fully. This cathartic experience helps in finding a sense of relief amidst the inherent stress infertility brings .

5. Inspiring Resilience and Hope: While hurts quotes can serve as a means of reflecting one’s pain, they also harbor immense potential for promoting resilience and hope. These quotes encapsulate the strength gained through adversity, offering a glimmer of optimism amid despair. By acknowledging the emotional turmoil that accompanies infertility, individuals can cultivate resilience and find the determination to continue their journey with renewed vigor.

6. Empowering Mindset Shifts: Infertility often leads individuals to question their self-worth or blame themselves for their inability to conceive. However, by emphasizing positive hurts quotes such as “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger,” or “Your value extends beyond your ability to conceive,” individuals can shift their mindset towards self-empowerment, learning to recognize their worth beyond reproductive capabilities.

Conclusion: Navigating the emotional side of infertility is an arduous task that requires embracing one’s feelings wholeheartedly while seeking solace and support from others who understand this unique struggle. By employing hurts quotes as a powerful tool for expressing emotions, validating experiences, finding connection, releasing pent-up frustrations, and nurturing resilience; individuals embark on a transformative journey towards healing and personal growth. Remember that though it might not be an easy path, it is one that ultimately brings forth newfound strength and hope for those longing to become parents amidst the trials of infertility.

Empathy and Insight: Powerful Infertility Hurts Quotes that Speak to the Heart

In the realm of infertility struggles, emotions run deep and wounds can be invisible. The pain and anguish experienced by those battling infertility often goes unnoticed by society at large, leading to feelings of isolation and loneliness. However, there is solace to be found in the power of empathy and insight . Quotes that touch upon the heart-wrenching reality of infertility can serve as a balm for these invisible wounds, validating the experiences of those affected and offering a glimmer of hope.

One such quote that speaks directly to the emotional turmoil faced by individuals struggling with infertility is, “Infertility isn’t a single event; it’s an all-encompassing rollercoaster ride through joy, hope, disappointment, grief, anger, and eventually acceptance.” This powerful statement acknowledges the wide range of emotions that accompany this painful journey. It not only validates each stage but also highlights the significance of acceptance as an ultimate goal—a state wherein one can find peace amidst adversity.

Another poignant quote that encapsulates the feelings brought forth by infertility is, “Infertility puts your dreams on hold while you watch everyone else live theirs.” This deeply relatable sentiment captures the heartache felt when longing for a child seems out of reach. It evokes a sense of being left behind while observing others effortlessly achieve what one desires most. By articulating this unique perspective with precision and poignancy, this quote taps into the core emotions associated with fertility struggles.

An additional quote that tackles infertility with cleverness and wit is: “When you’re trying to conceive without success, it feels like biology has turned into an inside joke where everyone else gets it except you.” Infertility challenges traditional notions about conception and procreation—something many take for granted—turning it into an exclusive club from which those affected feel excluded. This witty observation elevates awareness about how different life becomes when fertility eludes us while underlining the absurdity inherent in this unfair predicament. Its light-hearted tone brings a hint of comfort amidst the darkness.

Ultimately, these quotes serve as reminders that infertility is not merely a medical issue but a deeply personal and emotionally charged struggle. By expressing empathy and insight, they offer validation to those who often suffer in silence. They bring attention to the rollercoaster journey filled with diverse emotions, acknowledge the seemingly endless waiting period, and address the alienating nature of fertility challenges.

The power of these quotes lies in their ability to reach into hearts that have been scarred by infertility’s invisible wounds. They shed light on an experience that often goes unnoticed or misunderstood by society at large. Acknowledging the gravity of emotions felt along this painful path opens up avenues for healing, understanding, and genuine support. These quotes ignite conversations about infertility’s complexities and provide hope to those yearning for parenthood while navigating through tough times.

By employing empathy, insight, cleverness, and wit, these powerful quotes truly speak to the heart of anyone facing infertility struggles. They encourage compassion from others while reminding individuals going through the ordeal that they are not alone—others have experienced similar anguish and found solace through sharing their stories . In this way, these quotes become beacons of hope within an otherwise lonely voyage towards building a family.

My friend agreed to be my sperm donor. Then we learned he was infertile.

• Valerie Bauman is an award-winning journalist with nearly two decades of experience.
• The following is an adapted excerpt from " Inconceivable: Super Sperm Donors, Off-the-Grid Insemination, and Unconventional Family Planning. "
• "Inconceivable" combines memoir and investigative reporting and   chronicles her decision to find a sperm donor on Facebook.

I nervously typed out the text message, deleted it a few times, started over, and finally came up with this:

Hey, Babes! I miss you, how are you? I know this is going to sound crazy, but I've been trying to get pregnant for months now. I want to be a single mother by choice, and have actually been working with a sperm donor here in DC. But it occurs to me…you would be an excellent candidate for the role of biological father to my baby… Would you ever consider being a sperm donor? We could have a contract outlining that I would have full custody, and you would never be required to pay child support. It really would mean a lot to me for my child to have a relationship with the donor. And I know you're someone who will be in my life forever. No pressure. Please let me know your thoughts. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have. xoxox

I gulped and hit "send."

I had known David for 15 years. It had been at least six months since we'd spoken, so while he was used to getting lengthy texts from me out of nowhere, this was something else entirely. As a gay man, his path to parenthood was never going to necessarily be a straight line, but I wasn't sure how he felt about having a child or helping create one. I had been inspired to take a hard exit from the Facebook pages and was legit kicking myself for not thinking of calling on David sooner.

My stomach flip-flopped. I paced around my kitchen and cracked my knuckles as I awaited his response.

I didn't have to wait long. My phone chimed with the donk donk sound from "Law & Order," notifying me I had a new message. David had responded:

"FUCK YES!!!"

Related stories

Now it was my heart doing the flip-flopping. I couldn't believe he said yes — not just yes, but he didn't even have any further questions. This was the David I knew and loved. We could go months or even years without talking , but I could reach out to him out of the blue and he would be by my side to support me in a heartbeat.

It seemed like the perfect solution

I envisioned him as a fun uncle type of relative, who would also be a good male role model for my child. He would love my kid and be open and honest about being the biological father from day one.

I couldn't believe it. I had found a detour around my predicament, and now had a donor who would be an incredible asset in my child's life.

In between inseminations, David and I watched movies, danced and sang, and ate his delicious split pea soup until I thought we were going to turn green. Something quieted in my heart. All my anxious focus on getting pregnant was melting away. Now, I felt like it would happen. It had to, right?

I chose David because I wanted to be able to be certain that I wasn't going to screw up my kid — at least not by using the wrong donor sperm . Life doesn't offer those kinds of guarantees, unfortunately.

When we got his sperm analysis results back, we were heartbroken

Everything crumbled. David's sperm analysis results had come back. He was infertile. He texted me, clearly broken-hearted. He apologized, though it wasn't his fault. A screenshot of the results made it clear there was zero hope of getting pregnant with his sperm. I could tell David was hurting. Even though he had never planned on having a child, it doesn't necessarily feel good to know the option is off the table.

Heartbroken, I cried, alone, in my hotel room. For exactly one hour. Then I gathered myself together and started searching for a new donor back in DC on the off chance that I'd find someone great enough that I could avoid having to miss another cycle. I can't explain the determination that took over my brain and body during this entire fertility journey . Some unseen force has driven me to continue putting one foot in front of the other and my eyes have never wavered from the prize: a baby, a kiddo.

This rushed approach was exactly what I would have advised any other recipient to avoid doing. But faced with the crushing disappointment month after month of tracking my cycle, all for nothing, I knew I wouldn't be able to hold back if I could find someone promising with current STI records who was willing to know the kid from birth.

One donor rose to the top of the pile. His name was Eddie.

He was tall, handsome, a bit of a hippie — and he only worked with people who were willing to tell their kids the truth about where they come from; people willing to keep an open door of communication with him. This was significant because Eddie was Mexican American. He understood the importance of connecting the child with their cultural roots.

We started rapidly going through my preliminary vetting questions over video chat and agreed to meet in person to discuss whether it made sense to work together. And so, it was with steely determination (and not much else) that I flew back to DC to meet my new donor.
