From choosing IVF to ultimately turning to surrogacy, Rebecca opens up about the emotional toll of trying to grow her family—and how she knew surrogacy was the right next step. We also talk about moving in with your boyfriend, postpartum hair loss, and what it’s really like waiting on a positive pregnancy test.
