Summary

After losing her son, Teddy, in 2016 at three days old, slowly accepting his loss and processing her grief, Elle Wright and her husband decided to try and become pregnant once more. Yet not even a year after the loss of Teddy, Elle was back in hospital to deliver her second baby at 15-weeks, something she never imagined she would have to go through again. Astoundingly honest and always hopeful, 'A Bump in the Road' captures Elle's immense journey to motherhood, from secondary infertility, three rounds of IVF, multiple miscarriages - all taking their toll mentally, physically and emotionally over three and a half years of countless hospital visits, ovulation sticks and negative tests. Elle ached to hold her own living baby and started to wonder whether that chance was slipping away from her as the months and years went by.
