Best piece of advice I got was "Don't dwell on all the firsts that your missing during the wait. You'll still have you OWN set of firsts...the first time you hold him, the first time he smiles at you, the first time you rock him to sleep, the first time you feed him...etc". It's not always easy to remember during this wait, but I know I'll cherish every single one of our firsts with our son.
