Deborah Knight: 'Fertility doctors said it would never happen'

Weekend Today co-host Deborah Knight introduces her baby girl to the world and shared her story of a journey she was told would never happen.

The Daily Mail reports Nine News journalist and Weekend Today co-host Deborah Knight was shocked when she fell pregnant naturally after using IVF to conceive her other two children. The 43-year-old gave birth to Audrey at the end of January, announcing the birth she wrote: ‘I’m a mum again! Little girl born last night 30th January at 11:30pm.’

The message continued: ‘3.3 kilograms. Natural delivery. Still to be named. She’s divine. I’m well – exhausted – but over the moon.’

Talking to Woman’s Day about the shock of falling pregnant, she said: ‘Audrey came about naturally, even though fertility doctors and experts said it would never happen.’

Her seven-year-old son Darcy and five-year-old daughter Elsa are besotted with their baby sister, and Deb opened up about their sweet nickname, ‘The kids adore her and call her The Googs’.

Deb introduced the newborn to her Weekend Today family live on air on the weekend and shared a sweet snap with fans on Instagram proudly writing: ‘She didn’t crack it on TV!’

So glad for them. I have a couple of friends that were in infertility treatment. They made the first IVF and it didn’t function. They had other 4 embryos frozen. They were thinking about when going for the second IVF, when she became naturally pregnant. That was a huge surprise.

I know a Mum who had 1 child naturally quite a few years ago who when he was about 3 y.o. managed to unlock their front door, open their low front gates and ran out in front of a car. He sustained head and other injuries, regained consciousness but was paralysed. At the time they were trying for another child, but due to the stress and other problems they were told their chances were grim. They were lucky there were able to adopt a baby girl. She had just started walking when the Mum got pregnant naturally. It was a shock but it soon changed to excitement.

Very brave of her to share her very personal story – something many people uncaringly and thinkingly ask about. Fertility is a private matter – so don’t ask anyone EVER why they don’t have kids/why are they putting career first/ isn’t it about time you started a family… etc.
