Megan and Oliver announced that they were expecting their first child together back in April, alongside an emotional video of them finding out they were going to become parents.
After revealing her pregnancy, McKenna opened up about struggling with her fertility after sharing that she had been diagnosed with PCOS when she was younger.
At the time, Megan shared that she underwent IVF treatment and explained, “We spoke with our doctor & decided to freeze our embryos first & also have 1 implanted once my lining was at the right thickness & was nice and healthy”.
“After months of getting my lining good I went in for an egg retrieval. Everything went amazing we got so many eggs & Oli done his part. A few days later I started to get unwell & it turned out I had OHSS. Over hyper stimulation of my ovaries. Very painful & dangerous because my ovaries were HUGE!”.
The former reality star added, “A few months after getting myself better and fit!! We decided it was time to have our AAA embryo implanted! It was incredible. A month later when my lining was good we had our baby put in it was the most magical experience seeing it go into me being placed safely with embryo glue to make sure it sticks! & it did!”.
