"On our journey to have a child" sets the comparison. The words in the clause and the rest of the writing should keep to the original comparison or figure of speech.
Change the verb 'hit' - 'On our journey to have a child, we had to jump a few hurdles.'
Change verb and activity item to go with 'journey' - 'On our journey to have a child, we came across a few bumps in the road.'
I wouldn't, it's the best it can be.
Change the activity item 'hurdle' to go with the very 'hit' - 'On our journey to have a child, we hit the wall a few times.'

Got shaped is ok but informal to some people. "Came to be" expresses that something came/has come into existence. The timing is not the focus but the end state (the result) is.
Change it to 'came to be shaped': 'Dare I ask how those rock formations came to be shaped that way?'
Change it to 'become shaped.': Dare I ask how those rock formations become shaped that way?'
Change to 'got shaped': 'Dare I ask how those rock formations got shaped that way?'
I wouldn't, it's the best it can be.

Correct, in this situation. The person is expressing objection by asking a rhetorical question (opinion worded as a question.) "Why take a chance?" isnโt a true question (no answer is expected).
Change the verb 'taking' to fit the answer. 'I'm taking a chance and taking my mask off.'
Change it to 'why take': 'Why take a chance?'
I wouldn't, it's the best it can be.
Change it to 'It's been': 'It's been making me hot.'

I wouldn't, it's the best it can be.
