When Boris put the country into lockdown last March, he’d just returned from a tour in California and we were awaiting our first round of intrauterine insemination (IUI) fertility treat-ment — where sperm are placed dir-ectly into the womb — but then all non-essential medical appointments were cancelled. We agreed that while everything in the world was so uncertain, perhaps it wasn’t the best time to put more pressure on ourselves by actively continuing to try for a baby.

Although we didn’t start using contraception — and hoped that we may yet conceive — we did ditch the ovulation sticks and relaxed into this unexpected downtime.

Lockdown forced all the stress out of our lives… We ditched the ovulation sticks and relaxed

With Josh’s summer performances in France and Italy, and at Glastonbury and the Silverstone Grand Prix, as well as numerous weddings and festivals, cancelled, his anxiety disappeared.

Meanwhile, I was so worried about Covid, disinfecting post and shopping before I’d allow it into the house, that I wasn’t preoccupied with conceiving.

Intimacy became more spontaneous and natural and I’m sure that is the reason, just when we least expected it, I fell pregnant.

Lockdown meant Josh was also here to look after me when I was floored by morning sickness and swollen ankles, and he was holding my hand for the happiest of lockdown endings when little Romi was born eight weeks ago in our bedroom, weighing 7 lb 13 oz.

SLOWING DOWN HELPED ME TO GET PREGNANT

Caroline Kampila, 41, is an assistant accountant and lives in Nottingham with husband Tamas, 47, a shop floor supervisor, and their six-month-old son Anopa. She says:

When Tamas and I were diagnosed with unexplained infertility after trying for a baby for more than five years, the last thing we expected was to emerge from the pandemic with a gorgeous son in our arms.

Although my periods were regular, my follicles on my ovaries never matured to a stage where an egg was big enough to be fertilised and I would have a fake ovulation.
