    Fertility Adventures

    I’ve always been someone who wanted kids. I can’t think of a time where I didn’t. Of course, I fully support people who don’t want children. I understand every reason for not wanting them. I think I just have that urge, or whatever in me. Anyway, I wasn’t going to have a kid unless I…
