PCOS - check. Infertility - check. IVF - check. 43 years young - check. Sick of babydust - fricking double check. Join a Scottish infertile as she slowly swirls down the plughole. Now with added donor egg flava.
Botany has arrived!

Where to begin? 44, TTC for decades, two tries at IVF with my own eggs crashed and burnt before transfer, got PCOS and buggered tubes. First try with a known egg donor ended in an ectopic pregnancy, second try in Capetown was a bust, third go in October 2007 was a total disaster. I am ready, willing and able to talk trash about celebs, discuss gardening, moan about the UK and our crap weather and generally try to make it to the end of the working week without killing anyone. Nice cup of tea?

P, you are a doll! Congrats to Mare (my 1st commenter ever) and E! Welcome baby Botany!
About bloody time!
Congrats to the whole Mare family -- she's finally arrived (in the long-term and the short-term sense)!
Wonderful news..thanks for keeping us up to date. Welcome to the big wide world, Botany.
And there was nothing patient about the waiting at this end of the internet!
fantastic news, I'm so pleased she got here safely, even though it sounds like she put her mother through a fair old time. congrats mare and E and botany!
Pamplemousse, thanks for sharing this with us.
Yahoo! So happy to read of this great news but FORECEPS -- yikes!
On a weird side note, please let Mare know that at one point foreceps were a secret held very close to the vest by a royal family until it leaked out into general OB use. So her daughter got royal treatment to arrive into this world. Congratulations.
Yippee!!
(Though I wasn't all that patient, either!)
Have been holding my breath. Turning a bit blue. Thank goodness she's here!

Fabulous! I must say I was getting a bit worried.

Woo hoooooo! Terrific news! Thanks for passing it on! (I've been off the Internet for several days with a dead computer, and for once I'm glad -- I know I would have driven myself nuts waiting for the other shoe to drop all this time!)
Holy smokes! Welcome botany!! Bloglines booted me (and like an abused gf, I'm going back) so I didn't see this til now - woo hoo!
