She opens up about her first relatively straightforward pregnancy in 2019, followed by a series of devastating miscarriages over the next few years. She describes the emotional toll of each loss, the frustration with the medical system, and her determination to find answers through holistic approaches.


Eleanor shares her most recent steps, including undergoing IVF and working closely with a fertility acupuncturist and naturopath to address potential underlying issues.
