Marleysgirl - just wanted to say I watched this and you came over so well...what a lovely mummy It brought back so many memories of when we found out Sophie was coming early and her time in neonatal, and the day we got her home...I remember that feeling of "She's ours!"

xxxxx

Just watched this on iplayer and didn't KNOW it was you as i hadn't seen this thread but i knew it was you as i remembered we were 'november sparklers' together before Andrew decided to put in an early appearance and i remembered you were local to me so when i saw st mary's i thought "It's definitely her!"

You and your OH came across fantastically (as did Andrew too of course, little champ ) and i really enjoyed watching your story

 

[mizzk]

[mizzk]

[kerry m]

just watched it on catch up enjoyed watching brought tears to my eyes.What a great mummy amd daddy Andrew has.xx

 

[ellie]

Finally managed to watch it!!! Although I only watched your bit onwards so far
What an amazing journey. I remembered it well from the 'older mums' buddies but to actually see it was so moving. YOu and your hubby were such stars and so loving. Andrew looked so so cute in his incubator, and when he came home .... gorgeous boy!!!
Thanks for sharing it with the world hon you're a family of stars!

 

[Laura2919]

You made me cry! ! Andrew was born at nearly the same gestation as Chloe and Jaycee and I was so lucky! You must be extremely proud of Andrew!!!!!
Well done you! You was brilliant too!!!

 

[Marleysgirl]

Thank you everybody for your comments.

I didn't cry watching it, I was surprised at myself, I think it was because our bit was over so soon - talk about famous for five minutes! We've got it saved on V+ and we've just received the DVD copy, I think we'll be watching it again tonight (now we're home from holibobs) and I may cry then

It's a shame for the older mums that there wasn't a "normal" pregnancy there - both of the older mums she featured (myself and IVF-mum) had problems. I know that plenty of over-40s have babies with no problems. But I guess you can't cover every pregnant mum in one programme!

I'll read back and may reply to individual comments later this evening
