The former TOWIE star, 31, revealed she was expecting with footballer fiancé Oliver Burke on Thursday , and showed her blossoming baby bump.
Megan McKenna has revealed her secret fertility battle, following her announcement that she is pregnant with her first child.
Megan said they discovered that her womb lining was too thin, while she had already been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome when she was younger. She decided to freeze her eggs and thicken her womb lining before implanting an embryo, forcing her to undergo months of injections every day. 'We spoke with our doctor & decided to freeze our embryos first & also have 1 implanted once my lining was at the right thickness & was nice and healthy.Clips in the video showed Oli, 27, helping Megan with the injections, before they went for the egg retrieval.
Clips in the video showed Oli, 27, helping Megan with the injections, before they went for the egg retrieval 'Some people just get it. I was hospitalised for 6 days & was now on blood thinners to make sure nothing else bad happened.The condition caused her severe pain to the extent she couldn't walk and required her to be hospitalised for almost a whole week
She explained: 'A month later when my lining was good we had our baby put in it was the most magical experience seeing it go into me being placed safely with embryo glue to make sure it sticks! & it did!' She said: 'I can’t thank our doctor Mohammed & nurse Jade & acupuncturist who was amazing throughout the whole process.
The moving video saw the exact moment that the couple found out they were going to be parents, with Megan bursting into tears upon seeing the positive test Megan revealed her pregnancy last week with another emotional compilation and writing: 'A little bit of you & a little bit of me… now we're a family ♥️.'
But she said they will not be partaking in the trendy ritual of a gender reveal because they believe there are seldom surprises quite like the one of a baby.
