I don't know how I missed your post until now. I really enjoyed reading his birthstory and have tears in my eyes.
You were great, what a great birth. Hat's off to you !!
Sorry about the sore nipples. If you don't have some yet, get some lanolin cream, that stuff is magic. Breast pads too and don't forget to express milk and rub it on, let air dry before covering up.
Wish I could see a pic of your boy
of your boys. They must be so proud to have a little brother.

me:42, DH 43
FSH 26
DS: born by c-sec Apr15'03, 9lbs5oz 41wks gest. (after 4 years of ttc, starting in 1998)
DD born by c-sec Oct 13 2007, 8lbs13oz 39wk gest. (after just under 3 years of ttc)
~~DS was conceived naturally the cycle following a cancelled DE IVF, using my good friend's eggs. She was on the verge of hyperstimming.
~~DD's nat conception I attribute to using OPKs like a crazy nut, eating grapefruit daily and using preseed. also 5 cycles of TCM ending 2 cycles before that lucky cycle.
