    D'aww! This was possibly the most heart-warming one-shot I've read in quite a while. I really love the simplicity of this; it really works here. The viewpoint of the father totally made me tear up, even during the birthing scene. It was just so... I don't even have the right word to describe it. This is perfectly executed, perfectly done, and just plain beautiful. The emotions here were very vivid and I feel as if I'm right there, in the story with this new father. This is amazing. Great job!

    This is so sweet! The description is lovely and you only had one or two minor typo errors, which took nothing away from this lovely story! Its unique reading from the point of the father of a child. Wonderful job. :)

    This was really cute! I loved the description, it was simple but it worked and it really drew me in. And the point of view of a guy/father during a birthing scene is very rare but you pulled it off well and the emotion was captured perfectly, so well done :)

    You're really good! I don't know what you meant by 'I'm not a writer' If you can write decently, and you have a good idea in your head, then that makes you an author! And as far as I can tell, you've definately got it down. Some people just...don't express emotions good enough in their writing and that's what attracts people. You've definately got the emotions in there, and I could practically feel the anxiety and happiness myself!
