The Waiting Season

A Loving Guide to Navigating the Emotions of Infertility and Loss By Alessa Martin & Liz Swenson

For anyone walking through infertility, pregnancy loss, IVF, or the emotional complexities of trying to grow a family, We’re Trying offers compassionate support, validation, and hope. Written with warmth and understanding, this heartfelt guide helps readers navigate the grief, uncertainty, relationship strain, and emotional highs and lows that often accompany the fertility journey.

This book gently reminds readers that they are not alone while providing comfort, encouragement, and practical emotional insight during one of life’s most vulnerable seasons.

Perfect For:

• Women and couples experiencing infertility

• IVF and fertility treatment journeys

• Pregnancy and infant loss support

• Mental health and emotional healing resources

• Thoughtful gifts for loved ones navigating infertility

Why We Love It:

At Chapters & Seasons Counseling, we believe emotional support matters just as much as medical support during the fertility journey. We’re Trying is a beautifully compassionate resource that helps individuals and couples feel seen, understood, and supported through every chapter.
