With a cheeky smile and bright blue eyes, it’s no surprise that first-time parents Fiona Falkiner and Hayley Willis fell in love with their baby boy Hunter the moment he was born.
But their journey to parenthood was anything but easy. Undergoing gruelling rounds of IVF, Fiona tells Woman’s Day each day was a “mental battle” as she injected hormones, had countless blood tests and endured a rollercoaster of emotions.
Thankfully, all was worth it to hold their baby boy for the first time. “He’s just an absolute ray of sunshine,” gushes Fiona, 38, who welcomed the couple’s son on March 22, 2021.
“When I first looked at him, I just didn’t know if I could feel any more love. It was the most incredible moment of my life... and every day with him gets better and better.”
