The dream for many couples and single people facing infertility is for a ‘miracle baby’. Where in the past that was an impossible dream, science has given them hope. 
 
The IVF process often sees multiple embryos put into the womb to increase the chance of success, this also increases the chance that it might result not in one miracle baby, but two. 
 
Whether you are gay, straight, in a couple or on your own the IVF journey can be long, isolating and traumatic. This project explores what it means to emerge the other side, into the chaos and joy of family life with twins and hopes to shine a light on the subject to help others know they aren't alone.
