Kramer spoke to PEOPLE exclusivelyabout her pregnancy newsin June, opening up about how the couple —who reconciled afterCaussin’s cheating scandal — endured three miscarriages and two chemical pregnancies before becoming pregnant naturally following a failed IVF cycle and subsequent loss that February.
“It’s hard because it’s like ‘Have hope,’ but when you’re in that moment, hope is the hardest to find,” she said. “It’s so hard not to [stress] when you want a family so bad.”
Even after gettingher pregnancy officially confirmed, “I didn’t want to get excited,” Kramer recalled. “I didn’t want to tell a soul — even our family — because I just don’t want to go through telling people that we lost it.”

During a recent visit toThe Doctors, the “Dammit” singer explained that both of her children were conceived “right after a failed IVF” cycle. “I don’t know if my system needs[something] like the progesterone? I don’t know,” Kramer said. “I don’t know if my body needed [something] that IVF helped to get me going.”
In the audience sat Dr. Shanin Ghadir, an OB/GYN and reproductive endocrinologist, who confirmed Kramer’s suspicions that there could be a link between an IVF cycle and a natural conception soon after.
“There are some people, who for some reason or another, we are not surewhy IVF is not working,” he said, explaining that it’s important, in his opinion, to be proactive about procedures like genetic screening of embryos and “trial transfers,” where doctors test the uterine lining for sufficiency in supporting an embryo.
“Butthe actual process of IVF whetherit’s the hormones, whether it’s the lighting up of the uterus and the ovaries, it kind of wakes things up and as they are not successful maybe at that moment, during the next couple of months, their body releases that magical egg that allows them to implant,” Ghadir added.
