Who Cove Collective Is For
Who Cove Collective is For
Cove Collective is for people navigating infertility who have already learned that not all “support” actually helps.
We built this community after spending time on our own trying to find something that didn’t feel overwhelming, awkward, or emotionally draining. What we found were spaces that either invited endless comparison and doomscrolling, or required showing up on a schedule and sharing (probably crying) on cue. Neither felt ideal.
Cove Collective is the community we dreamt of, built for people navigating infertility. What connects people here isn’t a label, a timeline, or a diagnosis. It’s the shared experience of trying to build a family while facing setbacks and pushing forward, reconciling loss, uncertainty, disappointment, and hope all at once.
We’re here for you.
Who You’ll Find at Cove Collective
Cove Collective is for people navigating infertility across many family-building paths, including trying to conceive (TTC), IUI, IVF, donor conception, surrogacy, single parenthood by choice, LGBTQIA+ family-building, and infertility-related conditions such as endometriosis, diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), PCOS, and unexplained infertility. Everyone here is living the emotional reality of infertility now.
People trying to conceive (TTC)
Whether you’re early on, further along than you expected to be, or somewhere in between.
People navigating IUI, IVF, or other assisted reproduction
Including those in active treatment, taking breaks, prepping for another cycle, or in the in-between.
People building families through donor conception or surrogacy
Across many paths, identities, and configurations.
Single parents by choice
Pursuing parenthood independently and navigating the many complicated feelings that can come with that.
LGBTQIA+ people pursuing family-building
Including queer couples and individuals moving through fertility care, donor selection, or assisted reproduction.
People living with infertility-related conditions
Such as endometriosis, diminished ovarian reserve (DOR), PCOS, unexplained infertility, or more than one diagnosis at once.
People whose path is multi-faceted or varied
Many members have overlapping experiences, shifting circumstances, or no clear explanation at all. That’s normal here.
Everyone here is navigating infertility, and our community is built to hold that.
A More Personal Way to Connect
At the Community membership tier, members can access curated small groups designed for a more personal experience of peer support. Groups are formed based on shared experiences, needs, and how people prefer to engage, so conversations stay focused and emotionally manageable.
This option is for people who want deeper continuity and familiarity—where fewer voices can make it easier to feel understood and supported over time. Some people find that this makes it easier to settle in, be honest, and feel recognized over time. Others move between spaces depending on what they need that week.
