Janette Manrara and her husband Aljaz Skorjanec have been blessed with the arrival of their first baby. On Friday, the Strictly professional dancer, 39, welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world.
The couple had been trying to conceive for two years and were about to start IVF treatment. However, it looks like their baby had a different plan and they were finally able to welcome their daughter.
On Saturday morning, Janette shared the happy news on Instagram with a gorgeous black and white snap of her, Aljaz and their new bundle of joy. The caption revealed that the couple had named their daughter Lyra Rose. The photo showed Janette beaming in a hospital bed, cuddling up with Lyra and Aljaz keeping a protective arm around them both.
Janette had previously spoken about their struggles to conceive and the decision to start IVF treatment. She said, “For the past couple of years we hadn’t been using protection but nothing was happening, so we thought IVF was the next best thing for us to do.” She added “I know that IVF can be really strenuous on a woman’s body and there is no guarantee it will work, so to know that this little miracle just came from a wonderful night we had together is amazing.”
Throughout her pregnancy, Janette shared a number of adorable ‘bump-dates’ with fans on social media. In one post, she expressed her gratitude for being able to carry her bundle of joy and thanked her followers for their kind messages and support. She also called her baby a ‘little miracle’.
Aljaz also shared touching updates, saying that he cries every day on this amazing journey with his wife. Just before the birth, he shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse of their unborn baby during an ultrasound appointment.
Janette also revealed that she was advised to have a C-section as they are expecting a bigger than average size baby. She said, “It looks like we have a bigger than average size baby, but I’m not an average size human and because of the width of my hips it’s advised that I get a C-section.”
Janette and Aljaz have been overwhelmed with the support they have received throughout this journey. They are now proud parents of their little Lyra Rose, and they can’t wait to watch her grow. Congratulations to the new parents!
