In this episode Rachael shares her experience of infertilty and a diagnosis of both female and male factor infertility which meant their only option was to do ICSI IVF.
After grieving that they would not be having a baby naturally, they went ahead with this and in their first cycle of IVF, Rachael experienced overstimulation and then sadly miscarriage at around 9 weeks. Her miscarriage was prolonged, difficult and ended in surgery.
She then discovered she had developed hypothryroidisma and had to be treated for that before they could try again with a frozen embryo transfer.
That transfer was successful and is now their darling baby Lincoln.
