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!

Congratulations!! You must be absolutely over the moon. She's so gorgeous!

What a beautiful baby! Huge congratulations

She is lovely 😊 thanks for sharing your happy news 💗💗💗

Tear in the eye here, congratulations x

YANBU!! Congratulations and wishing you a speedy recovery from the c section. I hope you and little one can go home soon and nestle in.

Delightful!

Helena, now is that pronounced as Helen - a
Or
Hell - ane - a

Always wondered.

Congratulations to you and DH Secret, she's absolutely lovely. Love the name too.

LOOK AT THOSE CHEEKS!! Aaww, I'd just want to squidge them all day, bless. Enjoy!

Congratulations! She's so adorable.
