Alongside an emotional video today, Georgia told her fans she had undergone IVF to have her little girl, who will be born at the end of this.

She wrote alongside it: “Our little rainbow baby due December.

“I can’t thank my team enough ???? Rehan salim you are the best ivf specialist – I’m so blessed we met you. & Michelle my amazing nurse who helped me every step of the way!

WHAT IS MISCARRAIGE AND WHY DO PREGNANCIES FAIL?

MISCARRIAGE is generally the death of an unborn baby in the first 24 weeks – approximately six months – of pregnancy.

Miscarriages may not be spoken about a lot but they are very common. Baby loss charity Tommy’s estimates there are at least 250,000 per year in the UK and that one in every five pregnancies ends in miscarriage.

It may not be clear why a miscarriage happens but they are rarely caused by anything done by the mother or father. Usually the embryo has a random genetic defect that means it cannot develop properly.

Most women can go on to successfully have healthy babies in the future.

The NHS says most miscarriages cannot be prevented but avoiding smoking, alcohol and drugs while pregnant can reduce the risk.

Some of the other most common reasons for a pregnancy to fail in the first 24 weeks are ectopic pregnancy and molar pregnancy.

Ectopic pregnancy is where a fertilised egg implants somewhere outside of the womb, usually in a fallopian tube. It cannot survive and grow there so either dies naturally or must be terminated.

Molar pregnancy is rarer but happens when a fertilised egg and/or placenta does not develop properly at the start of a pregnancy. There is no single reason why it happens and cannot be prevented, though it may be more common in very young or old mothers.

A baby who dies after 24 weeks is considered a stillbirth.

Tragic loss

Last year Georgia and Tommy were left heartbroken when they went for their 12 week scan and were told about the rare chromosome disorder, called triploid syndrome, that meant their baby had no chance of survival.

The discovery left Georgia with the agony of having to undergo a termination – had she continued with the pregnancy, her baby would have been miscarried or stillborn. 

Speaking about dealing with the news, Georgia previously said: “It’s a very hard thing to take in when someone says your baby isn’t going to survive, but you’re watching that same baby moving around.

“If there had been no heartbeat, it might have been easier to accept. I asked if it was my fault, or if there was anything I could have done differently.

“He said it was incredibly rare and nobody was to blame, but I couldn’t stop torturing myself.”

The couple halted filming their show Baby Steps while she came to terms with her loss, with Georgia later saying:  “I was in the darkest place I’d ever been.”

Last year she opened up wanting another child, telling us: “I know some people go through miscarriages and can’t think about trying again, but I desperately want to have another baby.”
