A Little Miracle After 18 Miscarraiges
Angie Baker, has been trying for a child for 13 years before her "little miracle", named Raiya, was conceived.
"I can't explain how I feel. I'm overwhelmed. It seems like a dream and I still have to pinch myself. She's perfect in every way." says Angie.
Raiya was born on December 9 last year and is now a healthy 10-week-old girl.
Baker, who kept her hope kindle also had plans for adoption if things don't turn out favorable.
The ray of hope came with an article about a pioneering treatment offered by Dr Hassan Shehata at the Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust.
Dr Shehata is a specialist in recurrent miscarriages but said Baker's case was a challenge to him too.
"You're more likely to win the lottery than have 18 miscarriages.Therefore there must be an underlying cause, " he said.
A specialist test, revealed that Baker had high levels of a subtype of white blood cell, known as Natural Killer (NK) cells.
The cells would normally protect the body against foreign viruses, but in Baker's case they mistook the foetus for a virus and attacked it.
Dr Shehata's treatment is pioneering as it starts before conception and uses higher than normal doses of steroids.
After a lot of dedicated treatment, Baker was gifted with motherhood and she is loving every moment of being a mother so far.
Dr. Hassan Shehata is hoping that the treatment will become more widely available, although the equipment required to test for the condition costs between 150,000 pounds and 200,000 pounds.
