In The Weekly, Sonia details the number of rounds of IVF she undertook and the number of miscarriages she suffered before finally falling pregnant sixteen weeks ago with an egg donated by a close friend.
“I want to be really open with people about the fact it is an egg donor baby because we occasionally see in the media women over the age of 40 falling pregnant and having babies. And I know from personal experience that you can be lulled into a false sense of security, believing you can put off motherhood and fall pregnant when you want to. But it’s not true. At least, it wasn’t for me.”
