I am writing a post I never thought I'd write. I remember finding these post inspirational when I was ttc so I hope they will inspire everyone else who is still fighting infertility.
On Saturday 3rd of October 2020 I had my son by emergency c-section. He came early because of problems related to predicted pre-eclampsia. After a planned induction produced no real results after 18 hours they recommended a c-section to, as doctor put it, "just get baby out".
My son is the most beautiful and perfect thing in my life. I am absolutely besotted by him and cant take my eyes off him for long. I have never felt a feeling of such completion as I did when we had skin to skin. This is the biggest achievement of my life and has absolutely exhausted me in every respect. But I would do it all again for him.
When you're in the middle if the struggle with no end in sight anxiety and depression can impact you on a daily basis. It felt hopeless for me on many occasions (please read some of my past posts). But somehow I kept fighting and now I achieved my most important thing in my world. Never give up being a mum! Only when you keep fighting cn you make it a reality.
