Once I did it, because I was still playing professional tennis, and I felt like I wasn't ready to stop, and I wanted to keep going, and it just wasn't time.
And then all of a sudden, all this pressure came off of my shoulders.
It was just all this weight just fell off my shoulders once I did that.
Ever since then, I told everyone to do it.
I was like 27, 28.
Yeah.
So it was a really good time to do it.
And also, someone told me to do it.
So I always felt like it was really important for me to pay that forward.
Because then nowadays with technology, there's just so much that you can do.
Like you said, even with IVF, which is also such a great journey as well.
And I just felt so much better that I actually had that option.
So yeah, that's what we were able to do as well.
I mean, I don't think that we have that conversation enough about how many times that either you conceive and you have a miscarriage or whether you conceive and it doesn't work.
So I feel like the only times that work when you're not trying to conceive.
That's right.
I think that's just a really important part of just being a woman and just all these things.
I'm all about just breaking down these walls and talking about the uncomfortable and making them comfortable and talking about things that more people don't.
So you could tell us more about Rome, but it's okay.
Not that.
