AIBU to start a thread purely to luxuriate in the fact that I FINALLY HAVE A BABY!!

[Secretlifeofme]

I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl Helena today. First started trying in September 2016 and suffered three miscarriages since then. Almost gave up trying at the start of this year but got my BFP in February and today she is finally here! DH and I are over the moon to be parents at last, and I don't even care that I had an awful 26 hour labour followed by an unplanned C section because I AM A MUM!! Here is my amazing little girl!

Many, many congratulations!
Just enjoy every snuggle.
Congratulations also in making it through the labour. Women are tough!
If there was a toast emoji, I would've included that, as I lived off the stuff after giving birth!
What a beautiful little girl you have.

Aww congratulations OP!! A hard won victory for you so enjoy the snuggles.

I love newborn pictures - they always have some sort of variant of “what the fuck is happening here?” Expression!!
