In 2012 I fell pregnant with my fourth son. It wasn’t planned but I couldn’t have been happier. It just felt like it was meant to be. Things were different this time though. Five months into the pregnancy I began to feel unwell. Everything was a struggle. I had no energy, I felt itchy and my urine turned dark orange. Blood tests revealed that I had a severe case of ICP, otherwise known as Obstetric Cholestasis. I saw a consultant the next day who told me the words I will never forget – there was a high chance that I would lose my baby. The next four months consisted of a day to day battle to get me and my unborn baby through this.
