you won't be getting a full night's sleep for several months.
and the poop doesn't stink until baby starts eating real food, so don't be all weirded out about the diapers. the first 3 poops that baby makes in the hospital consists of some amniotic shit and it is really really REALLY gross, like black tar. Once that crap is out of his/her system, no problem. |

Those are the kinds of cute things they never tell you about on Baby Stories.
Congratulations, you've just taken your first step into a larger world. Yes, you won't be sleeping well for the next 18 years, and yes diapers and potty training aren't all they're cracked up to be, but it's all worth it. The reward of having your child run to you when you come home from work, or sit down to play with your Star Wars or GI Joe figures is worth any parental pain.

i have 2 boys so can't offer any specific advice.
childbirth is not beautiful. it's foul, nasty and chock full of emotion, something you'll likely never forget. don't get me worng, it's a life changing experience but it's nothing like tv/movies. both times took less than 1.5 hours for my wife so they were thankfully brief.

My wife and I are trying now to get pregnant. I am terrified beyond all belief. I know I will be a great Dad, and we both come from great families and have a solid faith and church family. Still. Scared to my core.

the scariest part is trying to anticipate thier needs. there will be fevers, colds, etc. and they can't tell you thier sick etc. you only see the symptoms adn like most parents, have no idea what it means. i lucked out in that my wife is a nurse with pediatrics experience so it was less stressful for us. have a good pediatrician picked out and keep thier number handy.
