"I can't tell you how much that meant to me and has made me feel a lot better today. "Social media for the win here in terms of creating connection when I was in a very lonely place. So thank you everyone [sic]."

One Instagram user wrote: "I'm sorry that you are going through this. I'm in an adjacent boat. Been hoping that a baby would be here by now. We have been trying for two years come July.
