To moms and dads : how did you feel when your first child was born?

Now I am father of three months old baby girl. When my wife on labor, I do stand beside with her, and look at the baby born in front of me, that's amazing, and I don't panic too when I saw so much blood, I feel so surprise. After that I follow my new born baby girl to the nursery room, waiting the nurse cleaning up the baby, and put her into the baby room. That's the first time I hold her in my arm, she so soft and cute. There are also had others baby borned on that day too, I also got take photo on her ( the doctor always remind me to take the photo). These three months was the most busy day for me, you will enjoy it, take care!

Hey there well I was happy but sad as I had not long lost my father when my daughter was born but I still loved her very much Love luvmydaughter xoxo

Firstly congratulations you will have your baby next year, I think it's your great time then, you and your spouse will get more pleasure from your little baby. so remind you kindly that you should spend your less time on computer, mobile phone or other electronics device for your baby's healthy. though I haven't a baby now, but I really hope I will have my first baby in the next year,,i like baby very much, now i have got my house on my own effort, so I think i am ready for a baby now..lol...thanks

I too will be delivering our first child in January. We are super excited and a little nervous at the same time. We are expecting a girl, how about you? Good luck! I hope all goes well for you. :)

congratulations for the both of you... :D i haven't been married and i haven't been pregnant instead, i'll with you my parents' experience when they had me. my dad used to have some sort of vices and he loves to gamble. my mom spends a lot of time hoping that my dad will soon change for the better. i can't say that my dad is an irresponsible father but he's just too friendly that he really can't say a "no" to his friends. when my mom gave birth, having me as a baby, my father just changed for one good reason that he is now a father. i guess that's just one of the many changes that any baby could make... :D

i gave birth c-section to both of my kids. when my eldest was born, the pediatrician informed us that he has less blood clot (i can't remember the term she used, but it's basically the blood clot) than normal and that we'll have to leave him at the hospital for a week for the treatment. he'll be incubated and antibiotics will be injected to him. i forced myself to calm down because breaking down won't help. those waiting days at home feels like endless. i feel so useless for my child and i keep thinking it's my fault that he's got deficiency. my husband would go to the hospital everyday to check how's our baby is doing. and then finally the wait is over! the joy we felt at finally having him home is priceless. and i really prayed hard the next time i got pregnant that it won't happen again. i hope you have a healthy baby and have a safe and easy delivery!
