Last month, actress Sarah Thompson announced the wonderful news that she and her partner, Alex, are expecting their first child together. They recently opened up about their fertility journey and their experience with at-home insemination using MakeAmom’s innovative kit in an interview featured by People Magazine.
“We were able to conceive in the comfort of our home, and utilizing MakeAmom was straightforward, discreet, accessible, and budget-friendly,” Sarah explained.
