I’ve been where you are, and I understand the anxiety swelling around you on this day. Here are a few ways to help get us through🤍

For some, Mother’s Day is a day to celebrate the person who birthed you or cared for you as a maternal figure. It’s one of the few days out of the year for children to take time out to adore their mother, or a moment for mothers to gaze upon the lives they’ve brought into the world.But for others, Mother’s Day may be a somber and challenging time, especially if you’ve lost your mom or if you ultimately desire motherhood yourself.

Psychologist Jamie Long, Psy.D – who also faces infertility – notes that holidays like Mother’s Day can add “additional emotional stress to an already complicated situation,”Parents.com provides insight, saying “Just for the record—infertility and pregnancy or infant loss can be devastating experiences that drain the life force out of even the strongest women.”The National Infertility Association recommends planning in advance for Mother’s Day.

If they choose to sit out the holiday, consider finding an activity to enjoy. With a partner – or friends who don’t have children – plan a movie, take a hike, or have a great meal. If they choose to speak about their journey, sit and listen. Tell them you see them, love them, that you know they are in pain, and that you are so sorry.Do not offer platitudes or reasons or anecdotes.

Do not tell them how easy it was for you to get pregnant, offer them your own children or tell them the negatives about pregnancy, labor, or parenting.No matter how she chooses to spend Sunday, make sure she spends it indulging in self-care🤍Moriah Ballard joined the KPRC 2 digital team in the fall of 2021.
