Keira Rumble’s journey to motherhood was marked by perseverance and resilience despite experiencing six failed pregnancies over three years. Her final attempt to conceive was especially challenging, involving severe pain that left her bedridden for several days. This pain led to a diagnosis of toxic shock syndrome (TSS), which required surgical intervention.

Despite these setbacks, Rumble turned to in vitro fertilization (IVF), which ultimately succeeded. On July 5, she gave birth to her son, Hunter Philip Harris, at 36 weeks gestation. Although he was born preterm and required immediate intensive care and 100 percent oxygen to survive, Rumble expressed profound closeness to her son, even though she could only hold him briefly after birth.

Hunter’s initial days were difficult; he was covered in bruises and struggled to breathe, which made the bonding process more challenging for Rumble as she couldn’t hold or breastfeed him as she had hoped.

Rumble’s story is one of hope and inspiration for other women facing similar struggles. She shares her journey to encourage and provide hope to those trying to conceive, emphasizing that they are not alone. In recognition of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day on October 15, she aims to raise awareness and support for women dealing with pregnancy loss and the challenges of trying to have children.
