I have really held off doing this as I personally found success stories quite difficult. However I know that many people find them encouraging, so here goes.
We are so lucky and excited to learn that all is well with our baby. We have had a few scans now and the last one at 13 weeks showed that all was well (long may it continue). I feel so blessed yet also feel sad that so many of you, including some of my good friends, are still waiting for your good news. I hope this comes soon for you all.
I am 40 in a few months and was starting to lose hope that getting pregnant with my own eggs would be possible. But here we are, luckily and amazingly, after our second round of ivf.
I am 14 weeks tomorrow and we are having a little boy! I feel especially blessed as this time last year I was going through my first miscarriage. Last year, feeling so miserable and devastated, I couldn’t imagine that I would be writing this. I am so grateful to the staff at the Lister for making this possible and for helping us to complete our family.
Wishing you all lots of strength and luck, whatever stage you are at xxx

So many congratulations! I love seeing the success stories as it gives hope that all of our hard work and strength is worthwhile. I’ve been having initial appointments at the same clinic and would be really interested to know who you saw and about your experience there - if you wouldn’t minding dropping me a private message that would be really appreciated.
Wishing you huge amounts of happiness and luck for the rest of your pregnancy xxx
Congratulations my lovely, it's hard seeing upsetting stories but the positives do help hun. Huge congratulations to you. I lookedat your scan before I read your post and I said to myself she's having a boy, based in the nub theory. Guess I'm getting the hangof this nub thing 😂 huge congrats lovely, enjoy the rest of your pregnancy 💙😘💝 lovely PIC by the way xx
Ah thank you so much! I don’t understand the nub theory but we definitely know it’s a little boy as we had the harmony test 😊Hope all is well with you and your pregnancy xxx
Hi Flimzee. Brilliant scan! Look at all those teeth!. Lovely to see a healthy little one developing. All the best with the rest of your pregnancy. Diane
Congratulations!! Such lovely news & a great pic!! This gives me hope - having just turned 40 & had a miscarriage - this gives me a glimmer of hope that all may not be lost yet!! Xx
Weirdly, someone somewhere knows the sex of my embryo already because we had chromosome testing before it was put back in me, but they’re not allowed to tell us for legal reasons as this stage! So strange to know that someone else knows this personal information and I don’t!
Ooo, that is weird! Yes they take blood from you and extract the baby’s DNA from your blood. It’s really amazing! How far along are you? Good luck with it all xxx
Thank you! I hope you are doing ok on your 2 week wait xxx
Thank you so much for sharing. Positive posts may be difficult sometimes but I find that they definitely give me hope mostly. Congratulations and thank you again for sharing your positive news xxx
Congratulations!!!! Amazing news! I personally love hearing success stories as Im trying to keep positive and focussed on what I want. Plus I'm at the age where every single one of my friends is pregnant or just had a baby so im bullet proof now 💪
