Daycares were closed. Wonder if anyone checked the cloud coverage forecast 😂

What is a book (or series) that is so good that once you are finished, you just want to start it again?

A series that is like greeting an old friend; that tastes like the first bite of dessert when you read the first page.

If you want others to grow your pie, offer them a piece. Don’t expect others to invest in you, when you aren’t invested in them.

@Mohsen_Seddigh @chrissyteigen Thank you for reading it!

It’s a companion piece to the one I wrote (below) about the loss of our daughter in 2018, which the @CBC very kindly published!

I need some mom friends who have kids (not twins) less than 6 months apart. Can anyone connect me with @chrissyteigen? 😅😂

I hope this episode reminds those navigating the same journey that you are not alone. ❤️

[Fariya Walji @FariyaW]

Loss, love, and law are the themes of this podcast, as I discuss navigating infertility and grief while managing a busy litigation practice.

[In/Fertility in the City @InFertilityCity]

Penultimate episode of the podcast for season 2 and it’s a corker! We spoke with @FariyaW who is a Canadian lawyer with 2 children born 4.5 months apart. To understand how, you’ve got to listen!

@alysanmati @nehachughlaw Agree!

[Fariya Walji @FariyaW]

@dannypostma It is extremely hard to get a refund. I contacted customer service multiple times.

[Fariya Walji @FariyaW]

@JOpolsky Yes! And when they put the pen down … a good sign to stop talking!

[Fariya Walji @FariyaW]

@dannypostma Tried this and was very disappointed. I identified my ethnicity and ended up with pictures that fell into stereotypes (Indian earrings and shawls) rather than professional headshots. All of the pictures felt off. No response on customer service to try again.

[Fariya Walji @FariyaW]

p.s. This story is one of hope, loss, grief, and love. Many people struggle in the darkness of infertility. My partner and I are hoping to find the right forum to publish our story and share some light. If anyone in our network has contacts, please let me know! 💜

This is a picture of some - not all - of the fertility drugs I injected into my body over 5 years.

The most important thing we can do is be kind to one another.
