*warning - picture included* A final update from me....

I'd like to introduce Grayson! Born last Friday at 39 weeks by a planned C-section and weighed 7lbs 15oz.

I could never have gotten through this process with out the love & support shown by amazing people on this forum.

You are all amazing IVF warriors who battle so hard to have a family - everyone's story is individual but you all share a common goal. When I first joined, I didn't think I belonged here as we were trying for baby number 2 for 4 years - I felt guilty for already having a child. The lovely people on here made me feel welcome & at ease - Its an amazing place to be able to speak freely & have people understand exactly what you're going through & feeling - no matter if you're trying for your first or second baby.

I want to truly thank everyone for the time they took to read my posts and offer advice - the world of IVF is such a scary, confusing place and this forum made it so much easier.

I want to wish all of you all the luck in the world in your IVF journey and tonnes of baby dust - please keep strong xxxxxx

Congratulations, amazing news. I feel the same and we are trying for our second so feel like I shouldn't really be 'moaning' as I'm already so lucky and I know some people would give their right arm just for one. Good to hear there maybe light at the end of the tunnel, and also possibly a sibling for our little one. Xx
