They conceived their child via IVF
Sara previously shared with her followers their journey with conceiving their child via IVF. This came about after Sara had a tragic miscarriage prior to which she wrote a lengthy social media post saying:
I’ve been shy about posting about my pregnancy, partly my own anxiety after losing one at the beginning of the year, but also awareness of what other people may be going through.
There can be so much sadness felt alongside the happiness (and luck) of others. However, I’m in the third trimester now and realised if I don’t post soon, you’ll see me with a buggy next year and think I stole a kid.
Also, I conceived via IVF, so huge love and support to anyone going through it or thinking about it. I want you to get everything you deserve and hope you know how brave you are to go on this journey of the unknown.
