Finally!! I'm now a Daddy! Our baby Nicolas was born at 2:30am after 12 hours of labor. I must admit, I never really realized how hard is it for women to carry that little life for 9 months and birth it after. I only had pity for my wife but i can't do anything about it, she endured so much pain..induction, epidural shot, episiotomy, vaccum, all happened in just one night. It was one of the scariest moment of my life, the baby's heartbeat dropped to 60bpm and I noticed the worried faces of the nurses though they were just silent about it.

All's well that ends well, although our baby Nicolas didnt cry after he came out which made me more worried, the doctors and nurses assured me that all is fine. He also endured a lot of stress plus an umbilical cord wrapped around his neck.

I now appreciate the value of life, its really a miracle.
