Just for fun....do you remember the first thing you said when LO was born?
For me, it was "Is he really a boy??" and then "Holy crap, he looks just like me!"

Re: What was the first thing you said when LO was born?
Since I had no idea what I was having. I remember my mom asking the doctor "What is it?" then she looked and said that she was a she and the entire room cheered. All I remember saying was "Yay!" And that I could do it all over again.
I made it past my goal I nursed for 1 year and 6 weeks! Im so proud of myself!
Well, I can't remember what I said except maybe "Let me see her" (I had a c-section)
I do remember what my OB said, which was: "She's tiny! (Then she turned to DH) And she's still a girl!"
My DH insisted that I might be having a boy up until the day Tegan was born, lol! It became a running joke between the OB and him.
I like this game
I said "Holy crap, she's huge".....wasn't expecting a 9 lb baby at all.
"Hey Baby, I love you." Which is weird to me b/c we called her by her name since finding out the gender. I have no idea why I called her "baby."
Sidenote: I remember immediately looking at her hair. I was sooooo afraid she'd get DH's hair.
"I just had a baby?! And it's a girl?!"
Seriously. Lol. I was team green and some how convinced myself that I was having a boy. But I think I repeated "I just had a baby?!" about thirty times over the next hour. It didn't hit me until I saw her for the first time in the NICU a few hours later.
shh don't cry.. Hi E, I'm your mommy.. Hi... I love you..
::aww now I am getting all choked up again!::
We were team green, and everybody had me convinced it was a boy - the nurses in l&d even thought it was a boy, so when the baby came out and the dr said "Its a girl" I started bawling looked at my husband and said "I have a daughter!!" The first thing I said to her, was "Hi, sweet baby"
Oh fun!
The first thing I said was, "oh my God, look how long his toes are!"
All the things I could of said and I was concerned with how long his toes were
YAY! 8 months ago today the first thing I said after having Max was "Oh my gawd that hurt...does he have hair?!"
For some reason I was obsessed with whether or not he was going to have hair!
My DH was obsessed too! When I was pushing he kept getting all excited about seeing her hair and I kept telling him that I didn't effing care.
I don't remember exactly..... but I think it was "oh my gosh!"
I had a c-section, so they lifted her over the curtain really quick before cleaning her up. It was quick, but that image will remain in my head forever!
i had a c section and i think i just kept saying "is she ok?", "is she ok?" because i couldn't see her. DH jumped up and saw her before they brought her over to me and he he said "baby, she has your lips!!!"......it was a joke between us about wanting her to have my eyes and lips and his hair.
and i remember the nurses saying "look at that hair!!!"......she was born with a full head of black hair and all the other babies in the nursery at the time were bald.

Ectopic pregnancy discovered November 6, 2012 at 6 weeks
Daughter #3 - January 19, 2014
Started our exploration into the world of international adoption June 2012. We have no idea what this is going to look like but we are excited to find out!
I had a c-section. The Doctor held her up over the curtain and the first thing I said was"Oh my God! Look at all that hair!!!!!" Followed by "She is a girl, right?" I was amazed that she had a head full of hair. I just figured she would be bald.

I was unable to speak because I was so relieved that he was breathing. All I could do for a long time was cry. I think the first thing I said was probably "ok" after the Dr told me it was going to take a long time to stitch me up. Then one of the nurses commented about me shivering, and I told them I was freezing.
ETA: my first thought, after "thank God he's alive" was that he looked Arab.
To say I was tired is an understatement...I fell asleep between contractions. I don't remember what I said, only what my mom and DH remembered.
When they gave him to me, I thought 'what a funny looking kid'. After that, my mom and DH said I kept screaming for DH to get him before I dropped him. I was back to sleep right after that.
Haha, I love this.
The first thing I said was, "He's purple." And he was, but he pinked up very quickly. After that, there was just a lot of cooing about how cute he was.
"Hey. I have this baby at home."
DD looked exactly like DS when he was born. I couldn't believe it.
memories........
DD was 7 weeks early and I had sever pre-e. I had a c-section and was extremely drudged. Can't remember a whole lot from that day.
We were team green. I remember when the pulled her out they were commenting about how feisty she was and I remember having to ask what I had. When they told me I had a girl, I looked at my husband and just took in the excitement in his eyes. He wanted a girl SO BAD. lol. Then I remember, reminding my doc that she was wrong and that I have a daughter! Throughout my pregnancy my doc kept calling baby a boy & the 1st time we thought she had spilled the beans because she quickly tried to catch herself and told me that when we were in the delivery room and I had a girl to remind her that she was wrong.
The first thing I said to DD was, "Hi gorgeous, I'm your Mama."
"Really?" In response to the dr and nurses guessing he'd be double digits in weight.
Then I said "holy sh!t" when they told me he was 10lbs 6oz.
