The IVF Partners Workbook
The Relationship Under the Medical Pressure
IVF builds a family. This workbook protects the relationship it's built on.
For the couple navigating IVF or fertility treatment who needs to name what it is doing to their relationship.
The Name It First Experience
IVF is one of the most physically and emotionally demanding things a couple can go through together. The protocols are relentless, the stakes are enormous, and somewhere in the middle of all of it, the relationship stops being tended because there is nothing left. This workbook gives the couple the conversation the medical process does not create space for — what each person is carrying, what each person needs, and what the relationship needs to survive. The output is not a positivity plan. It is the IVF Partners Agreement.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What is IVF doing to your relationship that you've been managing privately instead of naming together?
- What does each of you need from the other right now that the protocols and the logistics have been crowding out?
- What does your relationship need — separate from the fertility outcome — that you want to protect?
