I got the nurse mad at me in a similar situation. She asked me if i wanted to give the first bath and diaper etc. I told her that I am paying you guys about $10,000 a day to be here and i have many years to go so you do it! :rofl2:

She was mad but did it!

Congratulations to you and your family.

Congratulations. I raised four so I won't spoil the surprises you are in for. There is not a more rewarding experience in life than raising a child.

Blessings to you and the family.

Your healthcare is not free. Someone pays for it. Maybe not you out of your pocket immediately. If I go to the doctor it costs me $10 out of my pocket but i pay the rest of the bill every week with insurance and taxes.

Congratulations!

Thank you everyone for the kind words and wishes. I'm going to strive to be the best father possible. I too like reading everyone's stories about their new families and old memories.

There is no way to prepare for how you will feel. And your love for your child only grows every day.

Exact same situation man. My wife had a c section. The doctor said it was in his top 5 most difficult c sections. She pushed for 2 hours then decided she wouldn't be able to deliver naturally so performed the c section. The first poop was exactly like you described.
