Not that it made it disappointing in any way, I think I just had more of a sense of relief at first." Scott added of their fertility struggles, "every step of the way there is something scary or there is the unknown." With a baby now onboard, the couple said, "this has been a journey for us and there's a bit of that feeling of a weight off our shoulders, just talking about it and letting people know."
