Just a quick post to announce the birth of our twins last week at 37+2. Twin 1 is a boy and weighed 6lb1 /2.7kg and twin 2 is a girl weighing 5lb / 2.2kg. They’re both doing well.
Unfortunately I had to have an emergency c section which wasn’t the plan – I’m sad I didn’t have the vaginal birth I wanted – but the important thing was that they arrived safely. I will post about the birth at some point.
Ive previously written about some of my fears because of using donor eggs but the love I feel for these babies is all encompassing. We have our family at long last.
6 years of trying to get pregnant
5 years of pumping drugs into my body
7 ivf transfers (not counting the rounds that didn’t get to transfer)
2 chemical pregnancies
2 miscarriages after seeing heartbeats
Countless tears
2 beautiful babies in my arms ❤️❤️

Sorry for my delayed reply. I don’t want to say a trite “don’t give up it worked for me” when you’ve been through so much already and it took me so much to get to this point. But if you can take some comfort and hope from my story that makes me very happy and this blog was worth it! Good luck, I really hope for a good outcome for you. X
