I don't know where to start to describe the last week! Total whirlwind with an emergency admission, complicated induction, traumatic C section & 6 days at hospital.
BUT the best bit is ⭐ we welcomed Amelia Faith into the world on Friday⭐
6 years, 6 losses, 1 miracle🙏 ❤🌈#IVF
No idea what I'm doing yet. Intend to post about holidays, bargains and infertility.
Its all I know 😆

Wellll I'm now on Instagram.
And no, I don't know how to use it ✌️
Also, i know I'm rubbish at posting on here lately, honestly, life just gets so busy and overwhelming doesn't it?!
Life can be both everything you ever wanted, but also incredibly tough at times ❤️
I've never had Instagram, tic tok or Snapchat.
Am I missing on anything 🤔🤣
I feel like silly tic tok videos would be my bag

"A ‘Sorry about your miscarriage’ card might feel blunt but that's only because, as a society, we've pushed pregnancy loss out of sight."
@NellFrizzell writes in @stylistmagazine about her experience of loss & how cards from her friends made a difference: bit.ly/3TU2iBE

New research from experts from our National Centre for Preterm Birth Research has shown an ultrasound scanning technique can be used to predict future risk of premature birth.
The findings say the technique could help save thousands of babies every year: bit.ly/3x2IxQN

Why I wanted to apply for the new baby loss certificate and what it’s like to receive one. Sharing this in case others feel like me and didn’t know they needed something like this - until it was offered. Going live with a discussion on @BBCWomansHour now bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68597208
Well deserved ❤️
Total queen @Emmabarnett
Here we go @BBCr4today *sets alarm clock* ⏰

We’re incredibly pleased to see that the heartbreak of pregnancy loss is being acknowledged by @NHSEngland as it introduces paid leave for staff going through this experience, allowing them time and space to start their recovery.

ALT White text on a blue background reads, "NHS England announces paid leave for staff experiencing pregnancy loss." Above, our white logo, and in information icon sit in the top corners.
This is a huge and welcomed development. We lost 6 babies and I don't feel they were always recognised by people despite already having their own beating heart ♥️ 💔
Hopefully it will go even further back before 2018.
They all matter

We welcome the launch of certificates for those who have experienced pregnancy or baby loss, offering recognition of the tiniest of lives. Currently, it's limited to losses since Sept 2018 - we're anxious to see this extended soon.

ALT On a dark blue background, white text reads, "England launches certificates for losses before 24 weeks of pregnancy." Smaller white text reads, "Currently available to those who have had losses since 1st September 2018." A white information symbol, and our logo, occupy the top corners of the image.
Shout out 👋
Has anyone heard of or had the 'Emma and Alice' tests? Reccomended for repeat failed implantations
Any stories of what people did when embryos were not implanting multiple times?
Thank you in advance TTC community!

I honestly wish infertility would just fuck off.
It's such a cruel disease. People don't deserve it 😪
Hub had 'the snip' today.After 6 years of infertility we NEVER expected this to be needed! However, me & our son were minutes away from dying at his birth - I also had 6 miscarriages before our 1st baby. Physically & mentally I couldn't manage another pregnancy. Mad how life goes

Just put my 2 miracles for a nap. Love them more than life 🌈
Will never forget the 6 before them that sadly didn't make it 💔
It was the darkest times of our life.
Sending love to each and every person who's experienced baby loss.
