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!

Mazel tov! Few things make me happier than when people finally get to be parents when it's taken a while. I've had a few friends when I've literally jumped up and cheered when I heard they were expecting at last.

Enjoy your beautiful baby, and thanks for sharing!

Congratulations to you and your DH. This is the beginning of a new journey, an adventure. Enjoy each and every wonderful minute of it Flowers

Whatwouldbigfatfannydo · 22/10/2019 17:52

Congratulations. Grin Love her name too!

One thing I would say is that you were a mum long before she arrived. Although your three children didn't make it, they very much count and are just as much a part of your family. Sorry for your losses in your journey to get here today. Flowers
