Vicky Pattison has pleaded for advice after an exhausting first day of fertility treatment.

The former Geordie Shore star, 35, from Newcastle, took to her Instagram to ask her over 5 million followers if it was “normal” to feel so tired after a day of self care.

She donned Greggs branded pyjamas, a cosy dressing gown and went completely make-up free for the candid post.

Vicky captioned the post, writing: “First day of the fertility treatment and I’m already knackered... Can anyone tell me if this is normal or not?? High chance it’s just because my schedule is less intense this week and my body is just relaxing for the first time in about a month...

“The timing does feel a bit coincidental! Can any of my egg freezing/IVF queens let me know in the comments please?? 💕”

A flood of Vicky’s followers were quick to offer the podcaster their advice.

One said: “It is definitely normal. You just need to relax and look after yourself.”

Another wrote: “I’ve had 7 rounds of IVF and am lucky enough to now have 2 daughters. The drugs can be hard so lots of rest, water and cuddles”.

Vicky has been very open on her social media platforms about her egg freezing journey, having begun tests to see if egg freezing was an option for her in April last year.

Sadly she admitted that they had experienced a “setback in the form of an ovarian cyst”, which prevented her from embarking on her fertility journey.

However, last week Vicky announced on her Instagram that she and finance Ercan Ramadan would be able to take their next steps towards becoming parents as the cyst is now gone.

She added: “We are happy, grateful and a little bit apprehensive but ultimately really excited to take these next steps towards growing our family together ✨”

Alongside embarking on an emotional fertility journey, the Geordie lass has also just launched her own edit at New Look and is planning a wedding to fiancé, Ercan Ramadan.

The couple have been dating since 2019 and recently got engaged. After a tumultuous relationship history with cheater, John Noble, and the now imprisoned, Stephen Bear, Vicky has finally found happiness with down to earth Ercan, whom she met through mutual friends.
