Such a great story! You are amazing! He is so precious! Both your boys are!

It was the most amazing and an incredibly empowering experience of my entire life. My only regret is that I couldn't have this experience with my first born.

you've had it now!

and usually, most of us modern women know nothing of childbirth on the first go-around, unfortunately.

still, look at how much you've learned! i love these stories where the woman is so clearly aware of her body and its capacity to give life.
