From Child-Free by Choice to Expecting by Choice 🥳

from Diary of a Matchmaker · host Halal Match

We never thought we’d say this out loud… but we were that Muslim couple who confidently said, “We’re not having kids.” Full stop. And now? Alhamdullilah! We’re expecting. This episode is one of the rawest we’ve ever recorded: the real fears, the private conversations, the guilt, the relief, and the plot twist that changed everything.But this isn’t just about us. It’s about you, the single Muslim who’s unsure about kids, overwhelmed by the world, afraid of losing yourself, or scared of choosing the wrong partner. We dig into why so many of us avoid the topic, what actually sits underneath the hesitation, and how perspectives can shift with time, healing, and the right person.It’s honest, messy, and very real. You’ll feel seen.If something we said made you think, laugh, or feel seen, leave us a rating and review! It helps more people find the show. And hey, if you know someone who needs to hear this episode, send it their way. Sharing is caring!
