The psychic and her husband, former Silverchair drummer Ben Gillies, revealed on Sunday that their babies had arrived.“They’re here,’’ Gillies wrote.“OMG they are so cute. My heart is full.”Gillies announced she was expecting in May after a rollercoaster IVF journey that started two years ago.The 41 year-old admitted she was losing faith after seven rounds of trying. She has also spoken about suffering a miscarriage.Gillies told the Herald Sun last week: “I’m feeling really nervous — am I going to be OK, are the babies going to be OK?“Just those normal thoughts. I just hope everything goes well and I hope I’ll be able to breastfeed, all those things come into your mind.“I’m high risk so when you’re getting bigger and bigger they can pop at any time. I’ve got the bag packed.”Gillies, an original Housewife, returned to series five largely to talk about her experiences.“There’s not a lot of people that talk about IVF,’’ Gillies said. “I think we need to start the conversation.“You’ve got to have love and support because if I didn’t have the support of Ben, my mother and father and siblings, I don’t think I would have kept going. I would have given it one crack.”Gillies said motherhood was a dream come true.“I actually dreamt my passed away grandmother came to me and said ‘you’re going to have twins’,’’ Gillies said.“And then look at us, here we are. It’s still a shock to be frank, we’ve been trying for so long, nearly two years. I’ve gone through over seven rounds of IVF … it’s been emotionally challenging but to get to where we’ve got has been so rewarding.“There were times where my faith was completely and utterly tested, I won’t deny that.“(But) I knew something deep in my soul that it would happen.”Gillies said musician Ben was excited for fatherhood.“Ben is over the moon and he is going to make the most incredible dad,’’ she said. “He is the biggest kid you’ll ever meet.“He runs around with kids and he lets kids paint his nails and curl his hair with a wand.”
