Elena Borshcheva with her husband and children photo, interview 2016

A photo: Sergey Dzhevahashvili. Everyone knows that with age, no one is getting healthier. With the first pregnancy we had no problems, Martha's daughter was born in 2007. After her birth, attempts to have a second child ended in disappointment for a long time. My husband and I decided not to wait for a miracle and to try ECO (extracorporeal fertilization - assisted reproductive technology .-- Note "Antennas"). Only having encountered this procedure, I learned how many people are negative towards her. Being a public person, I considered it my duty to openly tell you that she used it and that's normal! We became parents for the second time, without a higher power there certainly was not. If they were against, nothing would come of it. Now I am on the board of trustees of the charitable foundation "For birth" to increase the birth rate. Yes, I'm not a doctor, but I went through IVF and share my experience with those who dream about a child.

Photo: Sergey Dzhevahashvili - I always say: there is nothing more ridiculous than our life. Doctors said that the youngest will be born on April 1. I did not take my word for it. And when on the Day of Laughter I wrote on social networks that I give birth, everyone thought: Borshcheva makes fun. At that moment, I was in no mood for jokes (laughs). We chose the name for the baby in advance. We stopped with her husband in three versions: Uma, Agata and Mia. We agreed that the final decision will be taken when the child is born. For some reason it seemed to me that Uma is more suitable for a fair-haired girl. I do not remember already what a logical chain in this occasion my pregnant brain built, but when my daughter was born with dark hair, she doubted the name. Just wanted a day to think about how Valera called: "Do not pull, I've already told everyone that you called Uma." So they decided. From the decree came out pretty quickly when Ume was three months old, again began to perform with the cooking stand-up show "Povari-ha-ha" and conduct master classes "How to develop a sense of humor." She left the baby with her husband. Valera warmed my expressed milk and fed it every two hours. In the evening he called and begged: "Lena, when will you be back?" I remember how I tell this story to my friends, and they ask: "How much did you leave?" I answer: "Hours to seven." "Seven? Our husbands are alone with the kids in an hour howling and weeping, Valera is a hero, "the girls said.
