About this episode

Nellie shares her journey through miscarriage, infertility, IVF, and the joy of pregnancy after loss.

Nellie joins us ahead of Marathon 27 in Hertfordshire to share her journey through miscarriage, infertility, IVF, and pregnancy after loss. After a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks, Nellie and her husband faced years of uncertainty, including two rounds of IVF and the rare experience of total fertilisation failure. Just as they were preparing for further treatment, and to their great surprise, Nellie fell pregnant naturally. She reflects on the emotional impact of loss, the anxiety that followed, and the arrival of their son, Arthur, in 2025. This Sunday, we head to Hertfordshire for Marathon 26. 🎧 Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & YouTube 👉 Follow the journey and support the cause at marathonsformiracles.com All episodes contain sensitive discussions around pregnancy loss and grief.
