I'm a Daddy!!!

**jay015** · November 6th, 2001, 07:32 PM

Since last October 31st, I'm the father of a beautiful little girl. She is my official first since I already have a 9 year old step-daughter. What an experience assisting the birth was. I can tell you that it's a whirlwind of emotions. I'm sure all the other parents here will tell you the same. Anyways, it's the first day where I've had time to do a bit of surfing and I just wanted to share with you this wonderful experience I am now going through. I'm off for the next 2 weeks so I can spend major time with her. By the way, when do you think I'll be able to sleep more than an hour at a time???

Enjoy and you will sleep, probably with the little one laying on your chest. Oh the memories, mine is 15 now and taller than me. lol For me, it is just alot of great memories.

The best to you and your growing family.

Congrats man!!! And in answer to your question....NEVER!!!

You are right though, assisting in the delivery process is like no other experience. My little girl was born on July 11th, this year. It has been a joy everyday since.

Good Luck and enjoy every moment, cuz they go by to quickly!

Hey, Far Out, Man!!!

Way cool.

I was there to "assist" my wife with our two kids. The first was our girl, now 11. The second was my son, now 8.

Just remember how wonderful that feeling is. Those were probably the only times in my life that I have cried in joy.

Congrats Buddy I've got three and would never give them back.
Your in for some High times and low times but mostly a real life change

**Stalemate** · November 6th, 2001, 09:40 PM

Cangratulations!

You lucky man

I could not assist in my own children's births, as both were C-sections, but it *is* one of those times when men are allowed - scratch that - expected to cry!

Trust me on this - it will change your life for the best.

LOL. Somehow I don't think Mrs. Danimal would let you send them back where they came from......
