If you’re a mom with a story to tell about getting pregnant, pregnancy, or childbirth, we’re looking for you! We want your story, so please share. Anything from ‘I used acupuncture and finally got pregnant’ to the ‘things I wished I’d known’, or anything in between. (However, we’re not looking for horror stories unless you had an interesting solution show up to help you and could potentially help others.)
If your story is used in our upcoming book, we’ll send you a free copy with your story included!
How to have your story included? It’s easy, just send us a quick email to info@acsstransitions.com with the subject line “My Mom Story” – we’re working on getting the online form up and running, but wanted to make sure you could start sending in your stories right away.
We can’t wait to hear from you.
