With Child

During labor

Just a word of advice, from a man who has been present for numerous deliveries...

Although it is nice to record these moments on film, I would say instead record them in your mind - you should aim to be "fully present" to experience all of it - delegate the pictures to someone else. Enjoy the time wife your wife. Just my opinion

Excellent advice. Can you develop a good friend's trust and arrange to have that person be the official recorder of your magic moments? I sure hope so. To often, we get so tied up in the hustle and bustle of everyday life and forget to stop and admire the truly beautiful moments and events around us. These moments should be captured and cherished for a lifetime! All my best wishes for you all!

I do agree with this, and like he said, he doesn't want to be stuck behind the camera. But, my doctor is kind of weird, and unfortunately only one person is allowed in the room with me while I'm laboring...Redrock of course, and that's only if we take and complete a childbirth class. I thought about using a disposable camera, along with the digital, just to make sure we get a few pics. I thought it might be an interesting angle if I had one of the cameras, and took some pics right after the baby is born, like before they hand me the baby. That's if this delivery is as easy as the last one was. :heart:
 
Birth pics

I'm in favor of pics in the lobor room but I have seen all three of my children born and would like to ask that if posted to be labled because unfortunetly I almost passed out every time. I would love to see the childs' first pics I think that birth of anything is a wonderful thing yet the acctual moment is quite unsetteling.

Birth pics will not be posted to this thread. If any pics are given out, it will be through e-mail only. The reason being that to post a pic on lit all people in the pic must be at least 18. And if you want to see the birth pics I'll be starting an e-mail list in about a month or so, and I will be sure to let you know in the subject line they are birth pics. :heart:
 
It would be a privilege to be part of the birth (I was there for 2, and yes the 2nd one was a heck of lot easier) so when you gather the e-mail addresses - do post and I'm there.

This is a great idea, and probably one of the easiest ways for us to share our little one with those who are interested. In another month or so I'll start the list....I'd hate to start it now and lose it by the time I deliver. :)

Now on another subject....you all need to get on Redrock to take some more pics. I can't do it on my own!

HotRed:
I too would appreciate you emailing pics of your baby being born. Count me in, ok...

REdRock:
Thanks much for all the effort you put into taking pics of your very lovely wife. She is one beauty and will become more beautiful as the days go by...Would certainly love more of her. Thanks.

I like this idea much more, and i think it is something that can be done. I would prefer to find someone else to take the pictures though. Maybe my sister or something so i can be there to help and support her. So we will check it out and see what can be done.
 
OK, is it silly of me to have thought of sending a congrats card right after the birth? When you make up that email list, I would like an address to send a card to you guys. And maybe a picture or two a few weeks after the birth. With mom and dad!!!
I have some of my kids like that. Makes a little tear blur my vision thinking back to those days. Boy, does time fly. I envy you both the joy and happiness you will again share together!!! In a good way!

LOL. Actually, we both just hit our 100th post, and I already knew whick pic I wanted to use for my av, but he couldn't find one he liked. So he was telling me I'd have to take some pics of him. Actually what he told me is that we'd have to do a bj pic...I guess that's what he wants to use for his av. We'll see. ;)

Tsk, tsk, tsk ... I'm telling you, the girls are going to want to see more than just that! Gonna have to do a full set .... then we can find out if you have any more ability for restraint than he does .... lol

;)
 
lol, trust me i dont have nearly as much to offer as she does. Thats why she has been the center of attention for the pictures. Maybe sometime in the future.

Might we just ask the two of you to make a list of emails of close thread friends that would treasure your birth moments and then send some pictures by email to us when you are able? That way, the site is not involved and we can all rejoice together with you in your wonderful event! I know you will get lots of return emails from those of us you share with.

Just an idea!

:rose: :rose: :rose:

been away for awhile and have'nt got up yet but I think this is a good idea.... I third it... or am I more then that???
Will have to read on to see for sure
 
OK Read all now!

Really need to keep more in touch.... am tempted to send my e-mail inn right now will wait for the appointed time. The woman on my end is dieing to see more then just a BJ pic of redrock.... but like we have both said whatever you are comfortable with is fine with both of us.

:)
 
Well we have been very busy. Although tonight we found some face paint and we had fun. I painted her belly, not an artist but we liked it. So here it is, enjoy.

She is cute as a button!!! What's with holding her hands over her breasts? You haven't made marks on them, have you!?? LOL

She should be au naturale!

LOL, the marks disappeared a few days ago. :devil: I thought it was a bit easier to see if my breasts weren't in the way, so I had to give them a bit of a lift. :)

LOL, you kill me!!! Nice thought, only your breasts don't hang down that low!!!! Just a matter of perspective. We aren't looking at your tummy from your angle!! LOL
The picture was very cute. Loved it. You are just so good, I could just eat you! (figure of speech here)!

Thanks!
 
Very Nice.............

Red and Rock......................You two have something to look forward to. I wish you the Best.
I also wanted to comment on Miss Red's absolutely gorgeous Nipples...............I get very excited thinking about how they will Look full of Milk. I look forward to seeing the Progress Mom and Dad.

That shot is sooooo great!!! you two must have had so much fun while doing it......did the paint brushes tickle hotred??? Love you guys......enjoy the holidays.
 
He did it with his fingers

the painting that is. :) It was so much fun to do. We're going to let our son paint my belly one of these days. That should be messy and fun. The baby enjoyed it, either that or was annoyed by it. S/he wouldn't stop moving. Here's another pic of the painting. Enjoy!
