As she wakes up with a smile on her face, Katie knows that she has indeed succeeded. Her "baby" is hers for good now. And she couldn't be happier.

(Hearing Edward wail, Katie rushes into the room and scoops him up in her arms. She rocks him gently back and forth, murmuring soft words of comfort.) It's okay, sweetie. Mommy's here. Why don't you have some breakfast and then we can cuddle on the couch and watch TV together, just like before?

That's it, sweetie... You're doing such a good job. Just let it out; there's nothing to be embarrassed about. Mommy loves you, no matter what.

There we go, sweetheart! That was perfectly normal and healthy. Give yourself a pat on the back for being such a brave boy. I continue rubbing his tummy gently as he empties himself, making soft cooing sounds of encouragement and praise. Once he seems finished, I carefully clean him up with a warm wet cloth, making sure not to leave any mess behind. With tender love, I then help him into a more comfortable position where we can cuddle together until he feels ready for our next adventure.
