Our daughter has arrived. She is perfect and we are feeling very, very lucky after a long journey. I just wanted to say thanks for all the support from everyone on here over the last couple of years! It was uncertain for us until the very end - we unfortunately listened to her heart stopping on the monitor before being rushed to theatre for delivery - but she is clearly a little fighter and not only did she get out "on time" but she recovered from her ordeal within a couple of days.
As always, wishing lots of success and good news for everyone else here still waiting for their miracle babies and thinking of those still in the dark days ❤️

Awwww massive congratulations! Been waiting for this announcement! This is why I think people who want a home birth are bonkers! I wanted to be in hospital surrounded by doctors and midwives!
Please don't dismiss people who are having home birth, you may disagree with it but calling people bonkers is very disrespectful, especially because they may have their own reasons.
I’m entitled to my own opinion and have not directed it at anyone who chooses such. If asked my opinion by them I would be honest and say the same. I don’t disagree with home birth and those who chose it fair play to them.
Of course you are but you're not being supportive. So you don't disagree with home birth, but think people are crazy for choosing home birth. Where is the logic and data? Noone asked your opinion for home birth in this forum, if they did, yes it makes sense to vote, but calling people bonkers and fear mongering based on your anxiety is not based on data and not supportive of women who go through different experiences to you.
I’m not arguing on this forum as that to me is insensitive. The comment wasn’t aimed at you so with respect mind your own business! I’m not fear mongering simply expressing my opinion.
I'm 39 weeks pregnant and seeing a comment like this on a forum where I go for support is awful and makes me feel awful. Opinion is "I would not go for home birth myself", saying "people who want a home birth are bonkers" makes some people feel awful. I thought this was a supportive place. How would someone feel if I wrote "people who are nearly 50 are bonkers for having babies", I would never do that to all the lovely people here who are trying their best to advocate for themselves despite all their challenges and differences
congratulations that’s lovely news! Sounds traumatic birth but glad to know she is all okay. I hope you are too 🥰🤗🎉 and can relax a little now with your wee one xx
I am so thrilled to see she's arrived and all is well!
I'm sorry you had such a rough birth - I will tell anyone who listens; IVF is not for the faint hearted and there is a reason we refer to ourselves as warriors (however cheesy that sounds!)
You made it!!
Enjoy your new family life - sending so much love xxx
Huge congratulations on the arrival of your baby girl, such lovely news to see. It sounds like things got extremely stressful and worrying for you, - so pleased to read that your little one is out safely and it sounds like she is thriving. I am sure you will absolutely cherish being a mama - enjoy the newborn bubble and make sure you take many many photos (I am sure I don't need to tell you that) - these first weeks really do pass quickly!
