I confess I’ve been struggling with my social media use since I learned I was pregnant.

Despite dubbing myself an ‘expert’ on platforms in my work life and knowing precisely why this was happening, I still found it hard to digest the content I was being recommended via Instagram and TikTok.

Desperately trying to get my Twitter fix like a child who wished for a Tamagotchi only to be given an off brand one that fails at both quality and functionality.
