McBusted's Harry talks about IVF
- Published
McBusted's Harry Judd says he and his wife Izzy Johnston went through fertility treatment to conceive their first child.
In July, the 29-year-old drummer announced he was going to become a father.
Izzy had a miscarriage last year and told Hello magazine she "felt like my heart was breaking" when people asked if she wanted to have children.
In her 20s she'd been diagnosed with polycystic ovaries, a hormonal condition that affects fertility.
Harry said: "You feel like you are never going to be the ones who get to say, 'We are having a baby'. That is why we feel so blessed now.
"In an ideal world when you're ready to start a family you hope you will conceive in the first few months of trying.
"We were like, no, no we won't need IVF, it won't be us. IVF was like something you didn't talk about. We thought it would be fine."
Izzy added: "I never wanted to stop believing that we would have a family.
"But you do feel like someone has pressed pause on your life and you can't go anywhere," she said.
The 31-year-old described the moment the couple watched a scan as the embryo was implanted: "It was such a clinical environment but there was such magic in the air."
The pair got married in December 2012 and are expecting their baby in January.
They don't know if it'll be a boy or a girl yet.
