That is good to know. I figured we'd have some time before, especially while my wife is on maternity leave before things get too crazy with him. Plus we'll have some reinforcements in the form of grandparents who will be in town for a month or so. I hope you and the family are well. Thanks, man. That is good to know.

I was very scared about his reaction and about my reaction, but after all, while the girl needs her mother for food and her father for the occasional burp, the boy needs us (and gets to have us) just as much as he did before. Maybe things will change soon. I guess they will. But know that at least for the first month, you, your wife, and your boy have time to adjust.
