Trying for a baby 'is an obsession'

PM

Available for over a year

After their final round of IVF failed, Sophie Sulehria and her husband Jonny Baker came in to the PM studio to discuss their attempts to have a baby. They started trying in the spring of 2013. A year later they were told that they would not be able to conceive naturally due to Sophie's endometriosis. She was also told that she had premature ovarian failure; she had the egg count of a fifty year old. In 2014, they began IVF treatment. A little over three years and thirty thousand pounds later they embarked on what they knew would be their last chance at IVF. (Photo: Sophie Sulehria and Jonny Baker. Credit: BBC)
