Navigating the Grief of Not Having a Second Child

Sometimes, the dreams we hold closest to our hearts don’t unfold the way we imagined. For me, the hope of giving my child a sibling has quietly faded, leaving behind a unique kind of grief. I mourn the laughter and chaos of a bigger family, the bond my child might have shared with a brother or sister. It’s a bittersweet ache—grateful for what I have, yet still feeling the loss of what could have been. If you’ve ever felt this too, know you’re not alone. How have you navigated these feelings?
