It’s a sign ➕

“Let's get it on". We have so been there: analyzing every cramp and nipple tingle and vague feeling of nausea for evidence that THERE'S A BABY IN THERE. Buying pregnancy tests in bulk to get the earliest possible plus sign. Jotting down potential baby names because it never hurts to think ahead, right? It's a sign, mama. You're ready. XO, TeamMotherly P.S. We know it's hard to keep your head up when getting pregnant takes longer than you hoped. Just remember that 90% of reproductive-age women are able to get pregnant on their own, and most women who seek help for infertility go on to give birth. It's go time.
