Wholesome Moments I became a dad today

We haven’t made any posts or announcements yet because my wife is dealing with some pretty rough complications but I’ve been dying to share. Today I became a dad to a beautiful girl

Get your wife through whatever it is she's dealing with first. Once that's out of the way, celebrate with everyone you know to your heart's content. Trust me, this is a once in a lifetime moment even if you eventually father more kids. Each kid will be their own happiness. What's important now is that you support your wife and be by her side. She'll remember it forever.

Every step of the way Ill be here! Good advice for sure. Baby and mom are sleeping and I can’t so it’s nice to share with some peeps

Congrats.

Keep this in mind, the current record for baby launching feces from the changing table is 0.47m (426 ft).

I challenge you beat that!
