A Cork mother has spoken of her joy at giving birth to a “miracle” baby girl after enduring twenty three miscarriages over ten years.
Georgina O’Shea had her first child, Leon, when she was a teenager. She had resigned herself to the possibility of never having a second child as all of her subsequent pregnancies resulted in miscarriages.
Ms O’Shea, who is in her thirties, went to a specialist in the US after her seventh miscarriage and was placed on trial drugs in a bid to help her bring a baby to full term.
