There are lots of memorable moments when we become parents. Some times it can be over whelming and sometimes it can be the happiest times of our lives. Some times it can be difficult and other times it can be routine. What I am asking is what is your most memorable moment when you first became a parent. It could be when you found out that you were going to be a mom or dad. It can also be when the baby was born. Maybe it was when they first gazed into your eyes when you met them for the first time. Maybe it was when you realized you would love them unconditionally for the rest of your life. I thought I would put mine first. I was sitting here and thinking back on all my pregnancies and my deliveries. Each one was so different and unique. I knew my babies before they were even born. I look at all of them and know that I will love them no matter what and I will always be there for them. There are day that are hectic and crazy but love every minute of it. If my husband wanted another I would say yes regardless of the pain and all the other stuff that goes along with a pregnancy. My most memorable moment was as I sit here and look at all my kids and think about my youngest the most right now. She is our angel and so precious. They all have their personalities but bring out the best of me and my husband. I guess the most memorable moment would be their birth. They were all so different but yet remember each one very vividly. Meeting my babies for the very first time is something I will never forget and I will cherish for the rest of my life.

I had difficult pregnancies, so with my first the most memorable moment was when I first felt him kick, and got to see the ultra sound. With my second one, it was when I finally got to see her after she was born. We didn't know if she was actually gonna be a she, so we were kinda in awe waiting, and after 31 hours of labor and emergancy c-section... I finally got to see her 6 hours later, and she was so little and cute. It was so overwhelming, i'd been threw the ringer with her and just knowing it was all over was good, but then I was scared to pieces because she was born early, and was worried about how much she was gonna have to go threw. Though, she's a strong little fart, she made it threw everything just fine, but still has minor issues now that won't be life lasting or life altering issues. Being a mom, is grand. There are days that I could just scream and kick things because my kids have drove me up the wall, but I wouldn't change them for anything. My kids are my world.

It was when my wife first urine tested that she had conceived. I just could not believe that I was going to be a proud father now. This is so because, do not know why I always thought what if I could not father a child? It worried me in the past in the pre marital state. And as slowly as the baby inside its mother was all movement in 6th or 7th months I was so happy to touch the yet to come out baby's prank inside its mother's womb. It so felt as if it was playing with me. I still recall those days.
