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!

Secretlife well done, and congratulations. What a beauty she is. You did it!

Helena - welcome to the world. We are happy you are finally here.

@emmetgirl what the actual? Biscuits? I hope you hit the wrong emoji (4 times) - if you are having such a bad day that you feel the need to piss on OP's chips like this, I feel sorry for you.
