  1. This is going to be the most beautiful story to tell our children one day ♥️🇿🇦 @wjjleroux #100
    13 127
  2. A large part of our marriage has been long distance, and when there are tough days I always come back to our why 🤍
    6 818
  3. For the first time in almost 2 years I feel validated 🙏🏼🤍 I have never really discussed my fertility journey on here because I never want it to be my whole personality. I would like to be known for so much more than this so I won’t touch on all the details at this point but it is so important to highlight the goodness when it happens. Today I feel happy and hopeful. To all the people navigating this journey: the single ladies looking at donor sperm, the teenager thinking about going on the contraceptive pill, the 30 year old debating freezing her eggs, the woman struggling through her 3rd miscarriage not understanding why, and the hard working couples saving up for their first ivf cycle, or the couple that has been trying for months on end with no answers. Willie and I see you, and we recognise your pain 🤍
