Lauren and Cameron Hamilton are preparing for a new chapter—parenthood. The Love Is Blind season one couple is expecting their first child together, a rep confirms exclusively to PEOPLE.

The Hamiltons recently shared their pregnancy news while discussing their journey and partnership with Clearblue. The couple, who have spoken openly about fertility challenges in the past, say this moment has been years in the making.

“We were counting down the day till we could test because we did IVF [in vitro fertilization],” Cameron tells PEOPLE. “We knew, okay, this is the day that we’re going to do the test. Of course, we’re going in for a blood test later that day, but we couldn’t wait any longer.”

Lauren and Cameron used a digital test to confirm the result.

“We did the classic test and we both went into the bathroom to look at the Clearblue test and it was face down,” Cameron recalls. “We flipped it over. We saw the word pregnant, and that was just a huge moment to actually see the word pregnant on the test.”

Lauren adds, “A relief. Because, well, we’ve taken a few pregnancy tests and when you use the ones with the lines, it could be anxiety driven because it’s like, ‘Is that what I think?’ So seeing the word pregnant, it was amazing. We just looked at each other. I fell to my knees and cried.”

A Journey Four Years in the Making

The couple first revealed their fertility experience in a past episode of their podcast The Love Seat. Now, they say that finally seeing a positive result was an important turning point.

“It’s been a long time coming,” Lauren says. “We’ve literally been trying to get pregnant for four years.”

Now the reality star is settling into her second trimester after what she describes as a rough first few weeks. Though she’s had several food aversions, there’s one thing she can’t seem to stop craving.

“One thing I that I do crave is cheese,” she says. “I want cheese puffs, I want macaroni and cheese. I want just regular shredded cheese in my mouth. Cheese and fruit have been my thing.”
