Default Expecting in S.E. Michigan

$500 Down on my baby yesterday, We are expecting delivery very soon.
My wife and I have been working for a long time to prepare for our new arrival.
I will have to give up some of MY very cherished personal space to make room for
our new baby but I don't mind i'ts a very small price to pay for the years of joy we
will have with our new arrival. For those who are interested I am including an Ultrasound
image of our new baby and her new home.

We all hope the new arrival and family have a long and happy life. Remember that when young the baby needs all your love and attention, don't be affraid to cuddle her, talking is also a very good way to make that all so important bond. CONGRATULATIONS to you and the Wife. Dave

Howdy, welcome to the forum. Congrats on the new baby, when my wife had an ultrasound, it didn't look anything like that, must be something in the water. Your baby looks great and you have already made a nice home for her, way to go.

Welcome!! Glad you found the forum. Those last days before the delivery are always hard...everybody's anxious, you've always gotta be prepared for the unexpected...whew! You'll be happy when those days are over, and the baby is safely ensconced in the new crib. But, I gotta warn ya, compared to the delivery, the GROWING pains can be a nightmare! You'll be at the store, all innocent, and something that you KNOW will look good on your baby will catch your eye...and she'll grow again!

Congrats, even when it's hard, it's fun with a new baby!!

Enjoy the ride.
