Today, I get to celebrate my little guy's 1st birthday and remember all the emotions we went thru that day too. Thanks for sharing. Congrats, and from one parent to another, let me just share one tidbit of advice- ASK FOR HELP IF YOU NEED IT. Your loved ones would love nothing more than to be there for you.*Adrianne*https://www.blogger.com/profile/10320227983914057660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018771899574281576.post-29979630519109733592011-08-16T20:07:44.884-07:002011-08-16T20:07:44.884-07:00I'm so proud of you, Dualie.

It's giving birth an amazing thing????? I loved reading your story. It was as if I was giving birth all over again. And don't worry. I thought I had a high tolerance for pain until having contractions. I found it really really painful and I was only 4 cm dialated when I went in to the hospital.karenleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02410634031966529146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018771899574281576.post-70626038787938230632011-08-16T08:44:55.840-07:002011-08-16T08:44:55.840-07:00Amy Congratulations, and thank u for sharing it is...Amy Congratulations, and thank u for sharing it is definetly an adventure u will never forget:-) Boys love there Mommies enjoy every momment:)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15926865568225657575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6018771899574281576.post-40882506426670068332011-08-16T04:47:39.369-07:002011-08-16T04:47:39.369-07:00Amy:

It is SUCH a pleasure! and now you have a "scary" delivery story to tell another unsuspecting first time mommy! ;) I'm glad things actually went pretty well! <br />2) Both of my boys were early. I heard that's pretty common. And they are both super duper smart...so there must be something to say about early boys and their intelligence. <br />3) You described Chris's reaction perfectly. Joe had the same "I want to help, but have no clue how to help" attitude. It doesn't change with each baby. It's the one time they truly have to let God be the one in charge. I'm proud of how well Chris did! <br />4) Make sure you write down in the baby book the first words yall said (serious and funny). For J, the first thing I said was "Oh no! He has a cone head! Everyone is going to make fun of my baby!" For Jed: "Already?! Wow! He came out FAST!" (and he hasn't stopped being my fast child since); and for Abi: "Oh look at her! She's beautiful! and it's snowing!" <br /><br />I know you will treasure your little one. He IS beautiful! I cannot wait for me to meet him! Love you guys!Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09927639670261225414noreply@blogger.com
