Infertility, fertility treatment, miscarriage and a twin pregnancy with Becca

Rebecca became pregnant easily with her first child but struggled to get pregnant a second time andunderwent fertility treatment through a clinic.After two cycles of IUI treatment she was still not pregnant and felt that she was letting people down not being able to become pregnant, even with this fertility treatment help.On their third cycle of IUI Becca became pregnant but then miscarried.  She describes this time as the loneliest she has ever felt.  After a failed fourth IUI Becca carried a lot of guilt about the process not working.Becca was encouraged by her clinic to now apply for public funding for IVF treatment but she kept putting this off.  She had conflicting feelings about this.  She already had one child and she didn’t want to take an IVF space from someone who had no children.However, on their  6th cycle of IUI she became pregnant  and at the 6 week  scan they discovered that she was pregnant with twins.  She didn’t need the IVF funding after all.At 19 weeks pregnant they had a scare with limited fluid around baby Neve and she was put on full bed rest.  The twins were born healthy at 36 weeks, but Becca had a bad bleed and ended up in HDU.  Thankfully she got well, and the twins were healthy and they became a family of 5.Music written and performed by Alan Meharry and Stu FoxWaiting for you instagram page - https://www.instagram.com/waitingforyou.podcast/Janine's photography instagram page -  https://www.instagram.com/janinefoxphotography/Janine's photography website - https://www.janinefoxphotography.co.nz/Submit your story to the podcast - https://www.janinefoxphotography.co.nz/podcast
