Stay strong!

For all the ladies going through or facing IVF, a year ago today I went in for my egg retrieval. They collected 13, fertilised 9 and 5 days later implanted 1 5day blastocyst. I now have a beautiful 4 month baby girl.

Stay strong ladies, miracles do still happen.

Congratulations magic80! That is wonderful! Hope you're enjoying pregnancy and it's been trouble free for you. Its true what they say....it's all totally worth it when you first hold your little one. My husband and I still watch our little girl sleep, sometimes I have to pinch myself! Xx
