Congratulations! My wife and I just had our second, a girl. We now have one of each. I got really emotional when both were born. You NEED to be in the room when it happens. I would strongly suggest using a mid-wife, my wife would agree. You have no idea what's ahead for you. Almost all good. This is one of those things that no one can tell you about, you just have to go through it to know what it's like. My wife breast feeds. That's a huge plus! I don't have to get up in the middle of the night for feedings.

Second that, Aye.

The coolest thing about being a parent (assuming you have the correct attitude) is:

That when you find you love this child more than anything else, and you realize that this child is a product of a unique time and circumstance...anything previously in your life done differently would mean that this unique child you hold so dear would not exist. Yes, it could be a different child/personality, but not THIS one.

Sooo...it makes every stupid mistake you've made, and every bad turn done to you (especially by the opposite sex), THE BEST THING THAT EVER COULD HAVE HAPPENED! (Otherwise, things would be different, for you pholisophically challenged or drunk folks)

Anyway, I think it's cool.

Congrsts. I'm going off to hug my little princess...
