" I think it's important to recognize that secondary infertility still counts as infertility,
and some of my closest friends have come from my infertility support group."
You are still a mother. It can often feel confusing and like you’ve lost this part of your identity, but this part of you does not die with your child. Your birth story is just as valid and important as those with living children. A lot of times when women gather and talk about their birth experiences, they will exclude you (either intentionally or unintentionally). If you feel that you would like to contribute to these types of conversations, it is okay to let your voice and your story be heard. People may be uncomfortable with your story of loss, but it is your story. Don’t be afraid to share it.
