Alicia never expected to wind up in a fertility clinic because she never thought she'd want to have children.
She grew up in Jamaica with a lot of responsibilities for her siblings.
So I am one of five, the second of said five, but I'm the first girl, and in my culture, you are required to help your mommy out.
Like, you don't have a say so in it.
And so bottles were done by me, laundry was done by me since I was 9 years old.
And I hated every last part of it.
So I always told myself when I got older, I didn't want kids.
And the sad part about it is I think the tongue is so.
It's powerful.
So you got to be very careful with what you say.
What do you mean?
I think because of I'm having chills because all my life I've said I didn't want kids, that I spoke that into existence.
Now, for a lot of people that doesn't like, you know, it's not real to them, for me, it is real.
So that's what I mean when I say the tongue is powerful because I kept telling myself that I didn't want children.
And I feel whoever I pray to listen to me.
