To hold one’s child for the first time.

I don't have one, would it work if I hold yours?

My youngest is 7 and kind of a big guy.

My newborn is now 8 years old and I still think holding her is the greatest feeling in the world.

That skin to skin is amazing, hearing that first breath/cry.

Do babies that are clean naturally smell nice or is that always the "baby" products?

[–] clay_pidgin 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Babies produce a pheromone to make them cuter so that you don't huck them into the woods when they just won't shut up.

I've heard at least once and prolly more than once online that the notion that pheromone's influence humans is a highly contested matter...

[–] clay_pidgin 1 points 2 days ago

Fair enough; I have no idea. We'd like to think we are above our animal natures I'm sure.

That’s by smell. They all smell fantastic in part because they don’t produce much sweat.

I never smelled that nice when I used baby shampoo.
