But&nbsp;despite all the challenges, the journey towards becoming a parent was undoubtedly Mikaela Lauren&#8217;s toughest battle. For&nbsp;the first time in&nbsp;her life, her body didn&#8217;t want to &#8220;obey&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Spring 2020. The pandemic has paralyzed the world and&nbsp;<strong>Mikaela Lauren<\/strong> is sitting and&nbsp;crying at&nbsp;Heathrow in&nbsp;London.<\/p>\n<p>She has just realized that&nbsp;she might miss the most important match of her life. She won&#8217;t be able to be a mother.<\/p>\n<p>Years of trying will be in&nbsp;vain. Months of hormone treatment to no avail.<\/p>\n<p>The last chance, the one that&nbsp;the friend told her about, at&nbsp;O.L.G.A. clinic in&nbsp;St. Petersburg, has just disappeared.<\/p>\n<p>She will miss the medical appointment and&nbsp;thus also the implantation of the fertilized egg that&nbsp;is waiting. She is sitting with the boarding pass in&nbsp;her hand and&nbsp;is denied boarding the plane.<\/p>\n<p>Crying, she tries to explain that&nbsp;she and&nbsp;her husband Peder have been fighting to become parents for&nbsp;five years, and&nbsp;that now, when&nbsp;Mikaela is 45, there is only one chance left.<\/p>\n<p>That&nbsp;everything is ready, the only thing that&nbsp;needs to be done is for&nbsp;her to get on&nbsp;that plane to the clinic.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I was completely exhausted after&nbsp;all the misses and&nbsp;shattered dreams. Full of hormones and&nbsp;stress. And&nbsp;now I wasn&#8217;t allowed to board the plane after&nbsp;the corona rules had been changed, says Mikaela.<\/p>\n<div class=\"block-accent-1\">\n<p><strong>Mikaela Lauren<br \/>\n<\/strong>Age: 46.<br \/>\nFamily: Husband Peder and&nbsp;two-year-old daughter Nikita.<br \/>\nLives in&nbsp;Stockholm.<br \/>\nJob: Personal trainer and&nbsp;coach.<br \/>\nCurrent with: The autobiography &#8220;Nere f\u00f6r r\u00e4kning&#8221; (LB F\u00f6rlag), which&nbsp;she wrote together with Anna-Maria Stawreberg.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nShe is tanned<\/strong> and&nbsp;dressed in&nbsp;training tights when&nbsp;we meet in&nbsp;grey Stockholm where&nbsp;the summer has already changed for&nbsp;the rain. Those muscular arms, those that&nbsp;have taken her to an endless string of major championship wins both in&nbsp;swimming pools and&nbsp;in boxing rings, are bare. Mikaela has just returned after&nbsp;a few weeks in&nbsp;Spain with her family and&nbsp;she is talking about beautiful days at&nbsp;the beach with her daughter<strong> Nikita<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Nikita, so&nbsp;much longed for&nbsp;and with the world&#8217;s strongest will. She is Mikaela and&nbsp;Peder&#8217;s very own child, the one who&nbsp;came when&nbsp;they both gave up. The one who&nbsp;talks non-stop, who&nbsp;often drives her mother crazy with all her questions and&nbsp;her tireless energy. The child who&nbsp;came, against all odds.<\/p>\n<p>Because&nbsp;Mikaela got to board the plane.<\/p>\n<p>The woman saw Mikaela&#8217;s breakdown and&nbsp;she understood. She told her: &#8220;I might lose my job for&nbsp;this, but&nbsp;okay, you can get on&nbsp;board.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mikaela landed at&nbsp;half past three in&nbsp;the morning. Five hours before&nbsp;it was time for&nbsp;the last mandatory check up before&nbsp;the embryo was to be inserted.<\/p>\n<p>Mikaela exhaled. This time it would work, she was sure. She and&nbsp;her husband Peder made one of the most difficult decisions they had ever made: to use another woman&#8217;s eggs in&nbsp;the struggle to have that&nbsp;child they so&nbsp;desperately longed for.<\/p>\n<p>Just a few years earlier, Mikaela was convinced that&nbsp;her body would obey her on&nbsp;the day she decided to get pregnant. That, when&nbsp;she and&nbsp;Peder wanted to become parents, she would only need to cross\u00a0 off the calendar these 40 weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8211; <strong>Once&nbsp;I decide <\/strong>on&nbsp;something, it usually turns out that&nbsp;way and&nbsp;my body has always obeyed me, says Mikaela.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why&nbsp;I felt so&nbsp;bad when&nbsp;my period came the month after&nbsp;our passionate night. And&nbsp;when it kept coming, month after&nbsp;month, despite all the attempts to get pregnant. Just like in&nbsp;most other couples who&nbsp;struggle to conceive the romance died down. Sex became something that&nbsp;had to be ticked off according to a schedule, to synchronize with the ovulation.<\/p>\n<p>Mikaela was confused. She had always disciplined her body to the limit. She set record after&nbsp;record in&nbsp;the swimming pool and&nbsp;was the best in&nbsp;Sweden in&nbsp;her distance, 200 meter butterfly, before&nbsp;she, after&nbsp;failing to qualify for&nbsp;the Olympics, made the wrong decision and&nbsp;was sentenced to 14 months in&nbsp;prison for&nbsp;having stored anabolic steroids.<\/p>\n<p>And&nbsp;even after&nbsp;she quitted this sport, her body had continued to deliver. Because&nbsp;now, when&nbsp;she got out of prison at&nbsp;the age of 30, she decided to start a completely new career.<\/p>\n<p>She started boxing.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter w70p\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_Tara_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">The gloves are hanging loose today<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nShe decided to turn pro<\/strong>, and&nbsp;soon she was a name to reckon with. When&nbsp;others had children, Mikaela learnt everything about boxing. She was going to be the world champion, and&nbsp;besides, she hadn&#8217;t met Mr Right yet. So&nbsp;Mikaela continued to push her body. She had some hard hits, but&nbsp;she took even&nbsp;more prize belts.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; When&nbsp;I was 38 years old, I took one of the biggest titles you can take in&nbsp;boxing, I had become a WBC champion.<\/p>\n<p>Now&nbsp;she was the best in&nbsp;the world. The following year she met Peder, the man in&nbsp;her life. Somewhere around that&nbsp;time the thoughts of starting a family began to sprout. But&nbsp;first she would do a few more years as&nbsp;a professional boxer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I was about to turn 40, and&nbsp;was in&nbsp;the shape of my life. Therefore, quitting boxing wasn&#8217;t on&nbsp;the cards, and&nbsp;I wasn&#8217;t the least bit worried that&nbsp;things wouldn&#8217;t go as&nbsp;planned when&nbsp;it came to having children.<\/p>\n<p>She was aware that&nbsp;the chance of getting pregnant decreases with the age, and&nbsp;so&nbsp;she decided to retrieve and&nbsp;freeze her eggs.<\/p>\n<p>-They got out a record number of eggs for&nbsp;my age: 16 and&nbsp;I calculated that&nbsp;I had enough eggs for&nbsp;two volleyball teams, says Mikaela and&nbsp;laughs.<\/p>\n<p>It fit well. Because&nbsp;Mikaela, who&nbsp;herself has many siblings, had always dreamed of having a whole heap of kids. But&nbsp;later on, when&nbsp;her boxing career was over.<\/p>\n<p>When&nbsp;she won her sixth WC title and&nbsp;she and&nbsp;Peder got married, it was time to start a family.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/> But&nbsp;there was no pregnancy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; When&nbsp;I was supposed to take part in&nbsp;&#8220;Master of Champions&#8221; in&nbsp;the summer of 2017, my period was several days late. I remember being so&nbsp;incredibly happy and&nbsp;I thought it was too good to be true.<\/p>\n<p>That&nbsp;was not it. Because, of course, the period came while&nbsp;she was on&nbsp;the Greek island where&nbsp;the TV crew gathered to compete.<\/p>\n<p>Mikaela was in&nbsp;despair. She called Peder at&nbsp;home and&nbsp;cried a lot. He tried to console her. He reminded her of her 16 eggs that, after&nbsp;all, were frozen and&nbsp;waiting to be fertilized.<\/p>\n<p>-When Peder did his part by delivering his sperm we learned that&nbsp;only three of the eggs were usable. It was like the ground opened up under my feet, because&nbsp;all of a sudden my chances were significantly reduced.<\/p>\n<p>But&nbsp;there were still three eggs left, and&nbsp;Mikaela tried to keep her spirits up. Until&nbsp;the doctor called and&nbsp;said that&nbsp;only one of the eggs had developed further.<\/p>\n<p>-I so&nbsp;fervently hoped that&nbsp;that egg would be our golden egg and&nbsp;when it had been inserted I moved as&nbsp;carefully as&nbsp;I could. I patted my belly and&nbsp;told myself that&nbsp;now, now&nbsp;I was finally going to be a mother.<\/p>\n<p>But&nbsp;the period came.<\/p>\n<p>And&nbsp;42-year-old Mikaela was told that&nbsp;the train had left. No clinic in&nbsp;Sweden would help her. She had become too old.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u200b<strong>Mikaela fell into<\/strong> darkness. She felt that&nbsp;the life was no longer worth living. She cursed her body, as&nbsp;so far, during all the years, it had done everything she asked from it. But&nbsp;now, when&nbsp;it really mattered, it was as&nbsp;if&nbsp;it had gone on&nbsp;strike. Mikaela encapsulated herself in&nbsp;her grief, and&nbsp;even&nbsp;though&nbsp;Peder was as&nbsp;desperate as&nbsp;she was, it was him that&nbsp;she took her despair out on.<\/p>\n<p>-At some point I shouted at&nbsp;him that&nbsp;life wasn&#8217;t worth living if&nbsp;I didn&#8217;t have children, and&nbsp;that comment&#8230; It was about to break him, says Mikaela slowly. Because&nbsp;who was he in&nbsp;her life, if&nbsp;he wasn&#8217;t enough to make her life worth living?<br \/>\nIt was getting quieter at&nbsp;home. Mikaela and&nbsp;Peder each went their separate ways and&nbsp;mourned the child they never had. But&nbsp;then Mikaela heard about O.L.G.A. Clinic in&nbsp;Saint Petersburg.<\/p>\n<p>The clinic where&nbsp;Russian fertility doctor<strong> Olga Zaytseff<\/strong> helped childless women until&nbsp;the age of 50 years old. As&nbsp;if&nbsp;by chance, it turned out that&nbsp;the clinic was going to have a seminarin Stockholm just a couple of weeks later.<\/p>\n<p>-Peder and&nbsp;I sat like two candles in&nbsp;the room and&nbsp;took in&nbsp;everything Olga told us, says Mikaela.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter w50p\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_Tara_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">Mikaela got a chance \u2014 and&nbsp;took it. Today she is a mother to Nikita, who&nbsp;has turned two<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nSoon she <\/strong>and&nbsp;Peder were on&nbsp;the plane to Saint Petersburg, where&nbsp;the doctor extracted six eggs, and&nbsp;although&nbsp;there were not as&nbsp;many as&nbsp;16, they were still six excellent eggs. Now&nbsp;it would work, right?<\/p>\n<p>But&nbsp;then the call came. The eggs had stopped developing.<\/p>\n<p>-I was on&nbsp;a train on&nbsp;my way to Malm\u00f6 where&nbsp;I was to give an inspirational lecture. Everything broke for&nbsp;me when&nbsp;the doctor called. I started crying on&nbsp;the train.<\/p>\n<p>An unknown fellow passenger saw Mikaela&#8217;s sadness, approached and&nbsp;gave her a hug. She tried to comfort her, even&nbsp;though&nbsp;they didn&#8217;t know each other. Mikaela got off in&nbsp;Malm\u00f6, wiped her tears and&nbsp;gave the lecture.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; We booked another attempt for&nbsp;May 2020, says Mikaela.<\/p>\n<p>By then the pandemic had struck its claws in&nbsp;Europe. Mikaela and&nbsp;Peder followed the news reports about closed borders with panic in&nbsp;the chest. Because&nbsp;if they were to become parents, it was essential to be able to get to Russia.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; But&nbsp;O.L.G.A. clinic launched a charter plane, and&nbsp;in May we left Sweden, a whole plane full of hopeful, childless people who&nbsp;longed to become parents, says Mikaela.<\/p>\n<p>This time the doctor retrieved five eggs. And&nbsp;this time too, the eggs stopped growing.<\/p>\n<p>-When I spoke to the doctor, she was honest and&nbsp;said she thought my eggs were too old. Instead, she suggested that&nbsp;we use egg donation, says Mikaela.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nMikaela drew back<\/strong>. Becoming a mother using someone else&#8217;s eggs was unthinkable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I could not imagine giving birth to a child who&nbsp;was not a part of me. I had always had a dream to see myself in&nbsp;my child. Now&nbsp;the baby wouldn&#8217;t have my genes, and&nbsp;it hurt like hell.<\/p>\n<p>But&nbsp;the doctor explained to Mikaela and&nbsp;Peder what it would involve, and&nbsp;she told them that&nbsp;the fertilized egg, as&nbsp;soon&nbsp;as&nbsp;it was transferred into Mikaela&#8217;s body, would be helped by Mikaela&#8217;s brain and&nbsp;body to develop.<\/p>\n<p>-Even though&nbsp;I understood that&nbsp;egg donation meant that&nbsp;I used a single cell from another woman, and&nbsp;that everything else would come from me, for&nbsp;a long time it felt like a failure, says Mikaela.<\/p>\n<p>Mikaela read up on&nbsp;so-called epigenetics, and&nbsp;understood\u00a0 what the doctor had said about Mikaela still having a huge influence on&nbsp;the child growing in&nbsp;her body, this fact made her and&nbsp;Peder decide.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; We would use Peder&#8217;s sperm and&nbsp;another woman&#8217;s egg. Because&nbsp;parenthood is about so&nbsp;much more, and&nbsp;for&nbsp;nine months this little thing growing in&nbsp;my belly would hear my voice, feel my movements and&nbsp;me patting it on&nbsp;my belly.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter w70p\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/web_Tara_5.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"caption\">Nikita has become a sprightly two-year-old girl. Becoming parents has been an exciting journey for&nbsp;Mikaela and&nbsp;her partner<\/p>\n<p><strong>But&nbsp;this was the last chance.<\/strong> Neither Mikaela&#8217;s body nor&nbsp;her soul could take another setback.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; This time I had to go alone because&nbsp;of the corona restrictions. I would have a stopover in&nbsp;London and&nbsp;then on&nbsp;to Moscow, where&nbsp;I would change planes to Saint Petersburg.<\/p>\n<p>It was a battle against the clock. Mikaela went on&nbsp;hormones, the fertilized egg was waiting and&nbsp;everything was meticulously calculated. The next morning at&nbsp;eight o&#8217;clock she had a final examination scheduled in&nbsp;the clinic before&nbsp;the fertilized egg was to be inserted.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s when&nbsp;Mikaela got stuck at&nbsp;Heathrow, had a breakdown and, thanks to an unknown woman working at&nbsp;the airport and&nbsp;making an exception for&nbsp;her, was allowed to board and&nbsp;begin the final journey towards motherhood.<\/p>\n<p>Because&nbsp;this time it worked. After&nbsp;a long journey home through a closed Europe, partly by taxi, partly on&nbsp;foot and&nbsp;finally via a flight from Tallinn, Mikaela landed in&nbsp;Stockholm, with a growing little embryo inside her.<\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nShe didn&#8217;t know it then. <\/strong>But&nbsp;she hoped. Oh, she hoped so&nbsp;much.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; It was my mother, who&nbsp;is a doctor, who&nbsp;gave me the news. And&nbsp;I&#8217;ll never forget that&nbsp;conversation, says Mikaela and&nbsp;shows pictures of a spry, blond kid on&nbsp;her mobile phone.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s Nikita. Mikaela and&nbsp;Peder&#8217;s daughter who&nbsp;turned two years old. A determined lady who&nbsp;puts Mikaela&#8217;s patience to the test on&nbsp;a daily basis. But&nbsp;at the same time a determined lady who&nbsp;is Mikaela and&nbsp;Peder&#8217;s everything.<br \/>\nDespite coming from another woman&#8217;s egg, she is strikingly similar to both of her parents.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Since&nbsp;Peder and&nbsp;I previously did not say that&nbsp;Nikita was born through egg donation, many people do not know that&nbsp;Nikita does not come from my eggs.<\/p>\n<p>And&nbsp;actually I hear as&nbsp;often as&nbsp;people say that&nbsp;she looks like Peder, that&nbsp;she looks like me. It is her. If&nbsp;nothing else, she has her mother&#8217;s temperament and&nbsp;strong will. It is something that&nbsp;Mikaela can testify to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I can probably honestly say that&nbsp;parenthood is the biggest challenge I&#8217;ve ever\u00a0faced, says Mikaela and&nbsp;laughs a little wearily. Then she adds: And&nbsp;the greatest joy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"ts-row small-border\">\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_1-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_1-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_2-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_2-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_3-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_3-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_4-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_4-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_5-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_5-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_6-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_6-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_7-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_7-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"column col-4\"><a class=\"popup-zoom\" href=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_8-Large.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"add-sh\" src=\"https:\/\/olgafertilityclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Mikaela-Tara-Pages_Page_8-Large.jpeg\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tara (Sweden) | By Anna-Maria Stawreberg | Translation from Swedish by Anna Svarinskaya<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16015,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>&quot;The 51st victory!&quot; Win the battle with infertility.
