| 05 Nov 2024 | Our TTC Story | 00:54:30 | |
for a solid 6 months I've relentlessly said that I will not be sharing our TTC journey. But then last night Tyler suggested that I do. After all, following along and relating to a small handful of other people's stories has supported me with so much hope. So I'm. not going through it anecdotally, I'm not sharing the stories of exactly what happened during those dark times, but I am sharing more about our story of trying to achieve a healthy pregnancy. I hope that this supports and helps anyone struggling TTC, anyone about to start TTC, anyone who's experienced miscarriages, and anyone looking to support a friend TTC. Love ya so much, and I hope this helps you! My Amazon Storefront: books, skincare, clothes, wellness supps | |||
