'But you kept growing and growing and it's starting to look like our dreams have finally come true.' 'I've been as open and honest as I could about our struggles with infertility and I truly believed that this day wasn't going to be possible for us. So when I saw this positive pregnancy test I have to admit, at the time, I wasn't jumping for joy.

Olympia also paid tribute to families who have experienced fertility issues or pregnancy loss. 'It is also incredibly important for me to recognise that although this is the best news in the world for Thomas and I, my heart aches for anyone that sees this and feels pain,' she said.

'It was so hard for me to write this because it feels like I'm caught between two worlds. It's not an easy road and I wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy. It's one hell of an emotional roller coaster.

'Stay strong, keep fighting, but most importantly don't forget to be kind to yourself.'

'My body was exhausted and my mind was spent,' she said in an interview with The Daily Telegraph . 'I've always been an outgoing, happy person and found myself becoming a hermit. I needed a full reset.

She said she was reluctant to 'go down the IVF path' as she has 'never been good with hormones'. 'Adding more hormones to my raging cycle scares the s**t out of me,' she confessed, but said she was not seeing a fertility specialist.

'I want babies and I will do everything in my power to get them,' Olympia concluded.
