Women who have undergone the in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) procedure would know
how challenging it is – both physically and emotionally – to conceive a child in
such a way; which is why Datuk Seri Siti Nurhaliza’s recent video about her IVF
journey was received with much love and support from the public.
The
singer, who posted the video detailing her second pregnancy, revealed that it
basically followed the same processes which she went through when she was trying
for her first daughter Siti Aafiyah, but that it made her cry more as she and
her husband succeeded in the effort.
Siti, who admitted that she had
undergone the process numerous times and failed as many before finally having
Aafiyah, stated that she was nervous when trying again as she didn’t know
whether she would be able to do it again.
“In my heart, I was praying that
if Allah would give me another child, I will try my best,” she said.

She also revealed in her video the many doctor’s appointments she had to go to
and the medicine she had to take in her efforts to have another child,
documenting every single process from the moment the embryo was inserted to
finally having her pregnancy confirmed.
“Having a child is never easy, but
we have to have trust in God’s blessings and to keep working on the things we
want… There were fans who told me that they faced similar situations, that is
awaiting for a chance to become a mother. They asked for prayers for an ease in
their effort like mine,” she said.
Siti shared news of her second pregnancy
with the public back on 1 December. It took the singer 12 years to finally
welcome her first daughter back in 2018.
