When we sought medical help, tests revealed that I was only ovulating twice a year and I also suffer from polycystic ovaries and endometriosis.
Now that I have baby Alfie in my arms, I’m convinced that lockdown was my fertility treatment. It forced me to overhaul my frantic lifestyle and when non-essential medical procedures, including fertility treatment, were cancelled due to the pandemic, I vowed to use the time to improve my health.
Suddenly confined to our home last March, I could no longer dash between the school gates, the childminder and my university an hour away in Edinburgh. And with gyms closed I couldn’t maintain the punishing workouts I’d been doing five days a week. As I subsequently discovered, working out intensely can lead to the release of excessive levels of the stress hormone cortisol, which can adversely effect fertility.
I bought a book called In The Flo about the positive influence lifestyle changes could have on my menstrual cycle.

At home all day, I swapped sugary snacks for healthy food.
After my gynaecologist explained that, although I wasn’t overweight, I had high blood sugar, which could lead to the production of too much testosterone — which can inhibit ovulation — I used a skin prick test three times a day to track my blood sugar and cut out bread and pasta, which were causing spikes. When we found out I was pregnant in June, I was thrilled but anxious as I’d had a miscarriage — my only pregnancy since 2012 — early last year.
For all its many challenges, the slower pace of lockdown meant I was also able to continue looking after myself while pregnant, and Alfie was born four weeks early on January 3.
I honestly think that without all the changes that the pandemic allowed me to make to my life, we might still be trying to conceive now.
