I will be away from here for awhile since my wife just gave birth to my first child. He was born today, 17/4/2007 at 9:30 am Malaysian Time. His weight was 2.6 kg and length was 50 cm. He is quite small since today was only his eight month. He was not supposed to due until at least around 16/5/2007. Nevertheless, he is very healthy and the mother is recuperating well. I was there through out the whole delivery and that was the best moment in my life so far. What is your best moment?

Oh Wow..Congratulations. yOUR LOVELY WIFE WORKED HARD FOR THIS SO PLEASE LOOK AFTER HER AS AFTER THE BIRTH A WOMAN'S HORMONES ARE ALL OVER THE PLACE AND SHE WILL NEED A LOT OF LOVE AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT. aLL THE ATTENTION ALWAYS GOES ON THE BABY AND PEOPLE OFTEN FORGET THE ONE THAT LABOURED HARD TO DELIVER IT. i KNOW BECAUSE WHEN i HAD MY SON i HAD A TERRIBLE TIME AFTER WOODS BECAUSE i HAD NO LOVE AND AFFECTION FROM mY EX HUSBAND or his family and it took me into depression and I have on ly now recovered from it. I divorced him two years ago and Now only I am getting to feel better. I don't want to make it depressing for you but I want you as a family to prosper and be united and happy. I pray God gives you all love, peace and harmony. I have a great new Husband now who has helped me blossom. Help your wife to blossom along with your lovely child and you will get untold rewards as the man of the house, believe me.

Congratulations to you for becoming the proud parents. I wish your son much happiness and health in his life. My best moment definatley would be when I became mom botht he times. Its the best thong in the world, no happiness is compareable to look at a child and wonder oh! God thats mine, I created it. Yu know my mom celebrated my birthdays with cakes and candles and new clothes for me till she was alive, she said it was not for me but for her that she became mom for the first time when she had me. I do that for my kids too.

Congratulations to your newest addition to your family. I have a 15-month-old daughter and I know how it feels to finally hold your son for the first time. That was the greatest moment in my life so far. And now watching her grow and enjoy every minute of my time with her is the next best thing. Just a simple smile and hug from her can really make my day.

Hey!! Congratulations!!! I want to share with your happiness... I am very happy too because I received a text message from my friend early dawn today, April 18, 2007. She gave birth to a very healthy Baby Girl, 7lbs. In fact I will be in the hospital after work today. Indeed a beautiful moment for both of us, our family and friends...

I understand your feeling because our first baby KC was just born last Sunday, April 15 at 1:58 in the afternoon, Philippine time. She's so beautiful and when I knew she was already born, I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I was at work that time since I was away from them during those times but when I heard my other half over the phone that she just delivered our baby, I was so happy that even up to now, I couldn't really figure out how it feels being a Dad. It's just so amazing. This is more than just the best moment of my life...When I heard my baby cry, it felt like more than hearing it.

Congratulations !!!!! A baby is the best gift anyone can have. Enjoy the moment and enjoy your baby and his activities to the fullest as before you know it, he'll be grown and gone. Not until recently there was trend of husbands being with the wife during delivery. Even now only few doctors allow the husband to stay. It was always the woman alone who has to go through the pain of delivery. It would be the loneliest experience, but worth it after it is over. I delivered all my three children alone. But I did not mind it as during that time this trend had not started. Be a good father, spend lot of time with him. My husband never spent any time with our children, so they are only closer to me than their father.

Hi shakeroo and congratulations for your child! It's good news that he is healthy it's the most important and the mom is doing good. It's nice of you to be there and support your wife through her delivery. One of my best moments is also when I gave birth to my child 5 years ago. I was so happy. Having a child brings a lot of joy to the couple. I wish the best of luck.

Congratulations on becoming a daddy! My best moment ever was also when my son was born. Seeing him for the first time after carrying him for 9 months was the most wonderful feeling I have ever felt. Enjoy your baby and take good care of him. You and your wife are the most important people in his life.

Congratulations on your sweet baby boy! There is no feeling in the world as nice as having a baby. I think it is great that you were there for the delivery. So many men miss out on that miracle. My husband was there for all three of our chldren's births and says wild horses couldn't have kept him away. Best wishes for you and your little family. These are moments you will always treasure.

first of all.. congratulation to you.. you just born a healthy child isn't it? oh.. did i miss that 8 month? it's okay to born in the 8 month.. i think we chinese believe it's a lucky baby to be born after 8 month.. i don't know how to explain it.. erm.. take good care of yourself okay? do avoid eating those unnecessary food that might cause danger to you.. i heard from my mom that she had to avoid eating some food after delivering me.. so.. just hope you will do the same :) .. anyway.. i'll cut short here.. take good care.. hope you and your family will always be happy.. god bless
