Tricia,
I’m so proud of you! What a wonderful birth story and experience! I’m so glad you were able to VBAC!
The best mother to a boy tip ever: when you put the diaper on, make sure his penis is pointed down. This will save you lots of laundry! No one told me this and boy did we have a lot of peed on clothes that first week before I figured it out!!
