'When people keep telling you there's little hope, it's hard' - Caroline Morahan on her traumatic journey to motherhood

"Maybe naively, I always had in my head 'well my mom was born when her mother was 44, so I'm not going to have any issue'. I just presumed," she says.

The couple have brought their four-month-old son, Rowan, back to Ireland for the first time. As we sit by the fire in her parents' living room, her beautiful boy sits calmly in his mother's arms, smiling and chortling at times.
