i've had my......
....baby boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hi girlies ....many apologies for my long absence....for those of you who don't know, i now have a gorgeous baby boy who is already 5 weeks old! he is amazing and so worth the wait and heartache, every single second of it. it still amazes me how he started out in life....such a little miracle. being a mum is fantastic....much harder than i ever imagined...but absolutely the best experience ever.
he was born 2 wks early by emergency c section and is doing really well.
I'd like to thank you guys from lttc - your support hasbeen amazing along the way. there truly were times when i don't know what i would have done without you. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for anyone reading who doesn't know me, we conceived after just over 1 yr ttc after 1st round of ivf. my dh has/had sperm problems (low in all areas) and i never thought we'd have our baby. so for those still ttc, never give up hope (although i know how very hard that can be at times). although our 'journey' was relatively short it was the hardest time of my life and at the time felt like it was never going to have a happy ending.....but here i am with my son in my arms as i type. i realise every day i lucky and blessed i am and i just hope the same happens for all of you.
xxxx
ps excuse lower case....am typing one handed due to bfeeding at same time!
pps sorry i haven't put more detail about him but i'm a bit concerned about anyone i know reading as we didn't tell friends and family about ivf.
ppps you girlies who are pg, make the most of the chance to rest in mat leave....i wish i had!!!!!!

Me and hubby also conceived first time with ICSI after 2 yrs of ttc and I am now 30 weeks! I still can't quite believe I am pregnant so can totally understand how you must feel at your little miracle
So glad all is ok lots of love to you all xxxx
mrs babyno1, congratulations!!! ikwym, don't think i'll ever get over that feeling. it really helps when i'm going mad with exhaustion to remind myself how fortunate i am.
claire, thanks hon. can't believe you are getting so close now!! i was exactly the same, but the things i was spending my time on seem so unimportant now. i haven't slept longer than 2 or 3 hrs in one go in the last 5 wks so just wish i'd rested more! hope all going well with pg.

Thank you for asking after me too hun that is realy sweet of you. Its still pretty much 2 steps forward 2 back right now. Still trying to come to terms with my ex leaving me, I have had a bit of a breakdown but have been doing my best to pick myself up. Have been feeling bit pants of late & VERY lonely.
Anyway hun, this is a nice cheerful thread about the arrival of you beautiful bundle & im not going to bring it down. I cant believe your LO is here when last Xmas he was a twinkle in your eye! Cliche i know LOL!
I dont post anymore, but i do pop back to see how all my LTTTC buddies are getting on.
Congratulations again hun & Sending you all the best, may your future be filled with the most wonderful & magical memories!
Lotsa luv xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'm so glad you're enjoying mummyhood so much- it makes me feel so excited for December.
Lots of love to you all xx
I have been waiting to see your BA and am so pleased for you.

I don't mind telling you I've just had a little cry! I feel as if I've seen your journey right from the start, through BE and FF and I just couldn't be happier for you that you have your gorgeous little boy in your arms. Well done both you and your HB. Here's to many more LTTTC bundles and happiness for all of us patient Mummys and Mummys to be!

Princess Star - lots of love to you too. Hang in there. You've done the worst bit I'm sure (and know from experience). Lean on family and friends - whether 'real' or virtual and you will come out the other side to a happier, wonderful life. x
I am so, so happy for you and your little family! I too have been waiting to hear how things went etc. Such a wonderful post to read after all the ups & downs you've had you are finally holding your little boy in your arms!! huge congrats and hope to hear more soon!! Son x x
I am sooooo pleased for you hun.
xxxx
It's amazing how close I feel to you all, despite never having met you.....I guess that's what happens when you go through this turbulent journey together. Thank you again. Right, better make the most of having two free hands as it's a bit of a rarity at the moment (not that I'm complaining). Lots of Love xx
Loads of Love
