Birth! He’s finally here - Birth!

He’s here! My little miracle is finally here and we couldn’t be more in love.

What started as a standard growth scan appointment at 37+1 on Christmas eve morning, turned into an FGR, 2 failed pessary inductions and finally a C-section today, with little man being born at 2pm weighing 6lbs 9oz!! a whole pound heavier than estimated. He’s a little jaundice but we’re keeping an eye on it! Drs and midwives have been AMAZING.

Never have I known a love like this. Everything has lead me here, and I could not be any more grateful if I tried.

There IS hope in pregnancy after loss. Loss is not the end of the line. Thank you to everyone who has ever replied to my posts and comments. Your support has carried me through this pregnancy!

My little Rafael James, you have completed us ❤️
