Have we left it too late for another baby? dAlings, this one gets personal 🩵 Between Bali belly before Bali and birthday chaos, we’re talking about trying for another baby—and the feelings we don’t always want to admit.
What happens when getting pregnant isn’t as easy the second time? When someone else’s happy news hurts? And when you’re longing for another chance at the newborn days?
Dena shares a heartbreaking loss, Alicia gets honest about the waiting, and somehow we still end up plotting our reality TV careers.
Big love to anyone quietly hoping it’s their turn next 🩵

Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke — Dena’s audiobook pick about a tradwife influencer whose picture-perfect online life meets the brutal reality of 1855.
Little Hottie — Alicia’s repeat recommendation for a rechargeable heat pack she’s been using constantly, with Dena equally obsessed with hers.
Make a vision board — Inspired by their retreat chat: carve out some time to put your goals on paper, and try including your own face in the images so you can picture yourself there.
