After 4 miscarriages, Chloe Fisher thought she'd never have kids. She's just had her second child.

After a painful fertility journey, Chloe Fisher and DJ Paul Fisher have officially welcomed their second child, Andi Bloom Fisher.

The couple announced the news on Instagram on Saturday, sharing photos of their newborn baby girl.

"And then there was you. Andi Bloom Fisher," they wrote in a joint caption.

"The most beautiful, soft & healing labour. A room full of love. The most perfect way to meet our beautiful baby girl."

The post was soon inundated with messages of support from Chloe's friends and supporters.

"She's perfect. Well done mumma," Jesinta Franklin wrote.

"Congratulations beautiful family!" Michelle Bridges added.

"So adorable!!!" penned Chloe Pink.

This is the couple's second daughter. They welcomed their first, Bobbi Maree Fisher, in June 2024.

"HELLO WORLD, meet our baby girl," they wrote on Instagram at the time.

Chloe's journey to motherhood hasn't been easy. Before welcoming Bobbi, the influencer was candid about her struggles with infertility.

The now-34-year-old suffered four miscarriages, underwent eight rounds of IVF, and faced multiple surgeries.

On her podcast Darling, Shine! (which she co-hosts with her best friend Ellidy Pullin) Chloe described her journey to falling pregnant as "surreal."

"We must have fallen pregnant within 48 hours of getting married," she shared.

"I then went on to have my first miscarriage at around seven weeks. Little did I know that I would then go on to have another three miscarriages — none of them got easier. I lost three singleton pregnancies and one set of boy twins.

Speaking about the loss of her twins on Mamamia's No Filter podcast, Chloe said she remembered the "moment so vividly."

"I actually didn't go in thinking that there was anything wrong. I actually didn't even know there were twins at that point," she said.

"We were sitting in there. You just know, as soon as the room goes a little bit silent, you know."

The one comfort Chloe took from that day, is that the twins had each other.

"It's like, so sad, because it still makes me really upset, but the two of them were, like, right next to each other, and it was like they were cuddling," she said.

"And I thought: life can't be this cruel."

Later, Chloe and Paul started seeing an IVF doctor, who discovered the podcast host had endometriosis.

"Eventually, I ended up doing about eight rounds of IVF. The amount of needles was pretty crazy. For me, after having four miscarriages, I'm like — you can't be this unlucky," she said on her podcast.

"This doctor actually said 'I think I can see Asherman syndrome'. It's quite a rare condition. I had the surgery the recovery was horrendous. It was one of the most painful things I have ever had."

Chloe explained that not being able to conceive was "traumatic on the body" and put strain on her relationship. But, she and Paul got through it.

"I'm so grateful I have him there to support me. It was horrendous," she said.

Chloe and Paul met in Bali in 2012 and got married in 2020, right before the pandemic.

"We're such a tight unit, Paul and I, like, we're so lame," Chloe told Mamamia previously.

"We're just such a team that if we're not together, we miss each other so much."

Before falling pregnant, the couple also looked into surrogacy, and had "mentally prepared" for another woman to carry their baby.

But in late 2023, they received the "greatest gift of all".

"We decided to book our very delayed honeymoon. My boobs were massive, my heart rate was elevated. I got home that day and peed on a stick, and it was positive."

Her first labour, however, was nothing but easy.

30 minutes after Bobbi's birth, Chloe began to haemorrhage.

"The room went from calm to emergency in seconds," she told No Filter. "Paul was told, 'Give her a kiss, give the baby a kiss, we have to go.' I remember thinking: I'm going to die here."

She was rushed to surgery, lost litres of blood, and needed multiple transfusions.

"I expected childbirth to be crazy, but not like that," she said. "Recovering from it… it was almost as bad as the labour."

For weeks, she battled physical pain and a frightening emotional spiral she didn't recognise at first.

But Chloe is resilient and was determined to "keep putting one foot in front of the other."

And today, she finally has the family she fought for.
