Birth of my daughter, hands down. The whole course of the pregnancy was marred with scares, and complications, and all kinds of shit that makes a man like me sleepless and fearful. Labor didn't even come naturally, my wife had to be induced because of some complications. But when that baby came out, started crying, and checked out as alive, happy, and healthy... greatest feeling ever. And I'm the guy who would have told you 5 years ago, "I'm never having kids fuck that!"
I'm only 15 now, but already I find myself less annoyed by/more amused* by kids than I was just a few years ago. Damn biology! Seriously though, congrats on the birth. And good luck to you! *This is not the right wordAnd I'm the guy who would have told you 5 years ago, "I'm never having kids fuck that!"
I'm 16, and until this year I was dead-set on never having babies. Now I melt in to "aww" saying goo when I see one.
Thanks and good luck to you. Someday you'll be the guy/girl who is unbelievably happy to have a healthy and happy baby. :)
She's beautiful! Congrats pal, I know what it's like to have a wife have a rough pregnancy. My daughter presented with a "choroid plexus cyst" on her brain and some abnormality in her liver, both are soft signs for Down's syndrome. We had to wait several months to see an ultrasound to determine if they corrected. They did, she was born healthy and wonderful, but those three months were awful. It completely sucked the joy out of it. I wonder, do we have too many data points and too many liability concerns for docs?
