Selling Sunset star Heather Rae Young has given an update on her fertility journey with her husband Tarek El Moussa
The 34-year-old has revealed she had a successful egg retrieval after initially being told they may only get two eggs.
Heather told her social media followers that she got ‘great news from the doctor’.
She said: “We are officially home from egg retrieval and got great news from my doctor. Initially, Tarek and I thought we were only going to get two eggs from this retrieval but we ended up with seven eggs, six ended up being good.
“We thawed four eggs from my egg retrieval we did two years ago. Three ended up making it, so we will create nine embryos. Usually, only 50 percent make it through the process but we won’t know yet. First update will be in five days and by two weeks we know how many healthy embryos we got! I can’t wait!”
Heather explained that she had been through some low moments but said she was amazed at how her body had coped with what she was doing. She also thanked all her followers for the love and support, and also her husband for his love.
She said: “I’ve had a few low moments throughout this journey but I’ve tried to stay as positive as possible. And shows that the body is incredible and can do wonders. Going into this having sad moments that my body wasn’t creating enough healthy follicles and to come out of this with great news!
“Thank you all for your love and support as this is a very personal journey that I chose to share to create awareness.
“I also want to thank my amazing hubby for being there for me at all times and being my rock. He truly is my dream come true and I’m just so excited for what’s to come for our family.”
We will be following Heather’s progress as she continues on her journey to becoming a mother.
