Kate McElroy, 39, fell pregnant with her three-week-old son, Joshua, in September 2022
Kate McElroy, 39, had always wanted to be a mum and decided if she was still single by her 38th birthday she would go it alone.
"At that time a friend suggested I consider going it alone, but back then it didn’t feel right. However, when my 37th birthday arrived, I promised myself that if I was still single in July 2021, when I turned 38, I would go for it. "Nevertheless, it took me until October to summon up the courage to get things started." As Kate was paying for the treatment on her own, she decided to opt for IUI as a cheaper alternative to IVF - one cycle of IUI is typically a quarter of the price of one IVF cycle.
"It simply involves having the sperm injected into your uterus via the vagina through a straw. A whole vial is used for each treatment – emulating nature, if you like. Kate had her first round of IUI in February 2022 but sadly didn't fall pregnant. She then went for a second round at Easter and conceived but sadly at the seven-week scan, there was no heartbeat.
Kate said she felt anxious about the pregnancy after the first loss but said it was "straightforward". Kate said: "My wonderful sister, Clare ,was my birth partner and our mum, Norma, was also with us in recovery.
