Hi everyone,

Taken me a few weeks to post this - but I am finally ready. We gave birth to our beautiful baby boy - Sebastian - 12/08/2021 via elective c-section, he was 8lbs 2oz (3725grams)

He is just gorgeous! Although he does not sleep much 😂😍 yet anyway.

I post this after another night with 2 hours sleep! But he is so worth it all!! I am not complaining! 😂 I was in shock I think the first week - I think part of me still had not fully processed that we were actually having a baby - even if I went pregnant for 9 months and had a huge belly 😂 Perhaps my subconscious was still protecting me deep down just in case - but I am so, so happy now I have had time to process it all and I am so inlove with this little man! I am enjoying every moment as I have realised it does not last long and they grow so quickly!

We were so so lucky - it worked first time for us, I realise that is not always the case by following posts on this forum. I feel very grateful. Grateful to the staff at our clinic for the work that they do and for science. I really do wish there was a guarantee for us all. Keep believing and keep hoping! I do wish you all the best wherever you are on your journey!

Lots of love 💙

He's gorgeous. Congratulations! Totally understand being unable to process that you might have a baby after IVF. It's a rollercoaster but so happy you have your lovely boy xx
