The post was rather emotional, as it included footage of Brynn’s previous dog, Pepper, who died several years ago. She used the opportunity to reflect on the tragic loss and how the heartbreak was so severe she vowed to never get another puppy.

“Two years ago, I lost my best friend, Pepper… Pepper was perfect,” she captioned the video. "Pepper died 3 months after Mimi (the grandmother who raised her) died. So it felt extra painful. I promised myself that I’d never get another dog. Happy to report, I broke that promise.”

So, what about Brynn's egg-freezing goal? Well, she completed it several weeks ago and made sure to document the journey on Instagram. She posted videos of her new diet plan and the various supplements she took to boost her fertility. Brynn also provided a look at her workout routines, her daily stomach injections, and the big retrieval day, which yielded more than a dozen eggs.

“I’m so grateful I got 15 eggs,” she wrote in an Instagram Story, “but for peace of mind I would love to have 25-30. My dream is to have 2 kids minimum, ideally 3. And because you can’t know the quality of eggs until you use them i.e. create an embryo, I think more eggs would give me peace of mind.”
