Essentially, while they are in diapers, the is pretty scary. Once they start plopping in bowls, you'll beam in pride at the massive rectal repulsions coming from the bum of something that came from your balls.
My kid is a blue chip, generational ter. I'd like to think it was all genetic, but I have to give a bit of credit to the Chinese culture that starts feeding babies from the table as early as 4 months.

Spent our first night away from our boy this weekend. We went two hours away and the grandparents came to visit to watch him. It was heartbreaking to leave him but everything went well on both ends. He's so good. Mommy spent the last two weeks stocking up on milk. He fed from the bottles fine. No issues going to sleep and no meltdowns. Plus it was fun just it being the two of us again. Partners in crime. We really relished it.

Currently three days past the due date. Clearly this boy likes to take his time.

Pfft 3 days. Babies don't have calendars or alarm clocks! I delivered at 41 weeks and 2 days, which is about when most first time mothers deliver "past due."
Be patient! You'll be meeting your little one soon... And get alllll the sleep in the mean time!

We delivered at 42. Apparently it means a calmer baby, which makes sense.

Born August 13 at 11:09 am, 7 lbs 6 oz. Over a day of labor and then a c-section. Our boy is perfectly healthy and my wife is recuperating well.

Getting him started early: played him this one at a respectable volume to calm a crying fit today:
It definitely worked, haha.

Congrats! Good job hooking him on Aphex so young. My son just turned 14... they grow up quick!
