ABOUT THE BOOK

You've got a friend.

Whether your journey involves infertility, pregnancy loss, or the logistics of surrogacy and adoption, the medical steps are often clear, while the emotional tools are virtually nonexistent. 

 

Trying offers support through practical strategies and heartfelt stories. With compassionate guidance and stunning illustrations that make the advice easy to digest, this approachable companion will create space for grief, healing, and hope. Regardless of how a family is being built, no one has to walk the path alone.
