Wanted to stop IVF attempts but wife wanted to continue

In his post, Yasran said that his wife of 12 years had also experienced two miscarriages.

At one point, he wanted to stop the IVF attempts after his wife nearly died in the operating theatre when she experienced ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).

However, Yasran said that he was also aware of how much his wife wanted to conceive and eventually, he agreed to let her continue.

Expressing his gratitude for how it turned out, Yasran also said that would be the last IVF attempt. He added that they already had adopted children who need their mother.

Yasran also slammed people who had called his wife "barren."

Many netizens have reacted positively to his post by congratulating the couple.
