Contractions started on her due date, 12/10. I went to the hospital around 3:30 PM and she was born the next morning at 6:26 AM (12/11). I got my VBAC and did not have an epidural, which I totally wanted. My code word was potato salad and during transition I kept asking for potato salad! By the time. I was out of the tub, I was ready to push. So no potato salad for me. Lol. She was 8 lbs. And 10 ounces and 21 inches long.

Congrats to you mama and welcome little girl! Way to go on your VBAC and without an epidural, like you wanted. Sure it didn't seem funny at the time, but you can always joke w DD about potato salad.
Congrats and Welcome, Olivia!
So glad the VBAC went well. Who was your doctor? If I do get pg again, I may need a new OB, and wouldn't mind exploring my options.
