Talk show host and journalist Tamron Hall gave birth at 48 years old, after years of struggling.

Ubers! hotels!). Tamron tells us why she named her son Moses (and not Bob), why she cried at first when she found out she was having a boy, and why she kept her pregnancy private for 32 weeks. Then we hear from real moms on what NOT to say to a friend going through fertility struggles.
