Infertility and pregnancy loss are often taboo subjects, however, after an 8 year battle with both, Shara Hutchinson, author of I Still Want To Be A Mom, breaks her silence on these topics. She shares her gripping story and introduces the concept that it takes a “village” to support those dealing with infertility and loss. She gives advice to “the village” on how to interact with those struggling to conceive or to maintain a pregnancy.
