Its a right of passage into adulthood. Its like finally, I'm 30, no one can again call me kiddo . Then a baby comes and all of a sudden you're nieve and don't know any form of reality until this baby comes and once again, you arrive. No one can lessen what you have accomplished. Sleepless nights, prefering someone so fragile over yourself. You're your own hero and it feels good.
No author can tell you what is going to work or not work to soothe, comfort or bond with the little person that has arrived in your home, your world will never be the same again. There isn't a book or manual out there that is going to show you exactly how you do it. I do however reccomend askdrsears.com and while pregnant Dr. Oz's You Having a Baby. Both very practical, helpful and informative.
Take heart, pace yourself and ask for help. It take a village to raise a kid and you only have 5 years to do it.
