Georgia Toffolo, 31, has opened up about the emotional challenges she has faced during her fertility journey with her husband, James Watt, 44. The couple, who married in March of the previous year, have been trying to conceive for nearly twelve months.
Toffolo described her initial difficulty in coping with not becoming pregnant immediately, stating that as an 'overachiever,' the prolonged process was harder in the first five months. She has since adapted, finding ways to appreciate the current phase of their lives. Despite the ongoing efforts, she admits to experiencing sadness each month when pregnancy tests are negative, though this feeling typically subsides.
"I feel really strongly that I'm going to get pregnant and we're going to have a baby and it's going to be really special," Toffolo shared, viewing the experience as a significant lesson in patience and relinquishing control. She expressed confidence that a baby is coming and suggested there might be a reason for the delay.
In April, Toffolo first shared publicly that she and Watt had been trying for a baby for five months. She recalled the emotional difficulty of the "two-week wait" period each month, a time characterized by potential pregnancy symptoms or the onset of menstruation. Initially, she took pregnancy tests alone, a practice her husband encouraged her to change.
"We are doing this together. That shift for me has been so amazing, I can actually cry at the relief," Toffolo stated. She emphasized that they are not struggling with infertility but are in an "in-between stage," acknowledging their fortunate position. She expressed a desire to connect with others who have had similar experiences that ultimately led to a successful pregnancy.
Toffolo, known for her role in "Made In Chelsea," has been candid with her fans about their journey, aiming to provide a relatable perspective for those also trying to conceive. She mentioned that while she is healthy, she plans to undergo further medical checks after completing a year of trying, preferring not to over-medicalize the process at this stage.
