Inspite of having dealt with and recovered from the most dreaded complication during her IVF cycle, she continued her infertility treatment from Dr Suman Puri. She went in for two IVF stimulation cycles under her treatment and finally conceived. She delivered a healthy male baby weighing 3.7kg on 29/6/20 in DMCH. Both the mother and baby are doing fine and were discharged in a healthy condition.
