Every year I see this day come and go and wonder when will I get to celebrate in this special occasion??? A week ago the answer became clear....our wee miracle decided to come early!!!!
On Sunday 6th May 2012 at 11.17am our beautiful daughter was born at 37w 2d following emergency Cesarean. She weighed 2770g (6lb 1oz), was 50cm, and the most beautiful thing we had ever seen.
So we have done it!!!! We are now parents, my dream of being a mummy is a reality. Its been a long road, so long that my little girl knew that mum needed a break and decided that she would be here in time for us to celebrate in mothers day.
In the week that she has been in our lives, she has enriched them so much more than we could ever imagine. We find ourselves just starring at her in pure wonderment. She is just so beautiful, perfect. She is very alert, loves to play with her hands, sleeps well and is a good feeder. We can see both of us in her - more me than my hubby but still, she is definately a creation of both of us.
The road to parent hood sure has been a hard path, and I know there will be hard roads ahead... but the first time I saw her, I was in love... and I would do it all over again.
Thank you for following me in my quest to become a mum. For those who are reading this blog, still waiting for your own miracle to happen.... don't give up. All the tears, heartache, time, pain, and every other emotion that has come with this journey has been hands down worth it. The love I have for my girl is like no other I have ever felt, and I know its the same for my husband.
We love our beautiful girl, now and for always.
Happy mothers day xxx
A private and personal journey in achieving our goal of a family... I have decided to journal my experiences of trying for a baby – the miscarriage, the fertility pathway and hopefully pregnancy. I want to be able to look back on this one day and appreciate how far we have come in order to get our dream. I also hope to help others in realising they are not alone in their own journeys x

36w 6d
We have a date!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bubs will be induced on the 16th May (38w 5d) if she doesn't make a surprise visit before then!!! It was a little longer than I was hoping, but she is growing so well in there the obstetrician didn't want to go too early (and hey, I gotta put my baby girl first). So the 16th it is!!! Its so nice to have a date :) Im so nervous, scared, excited.... but mostly I can't wait to meet her!!!
Countdown is well and truly on xx
