"I've never had a baby before, but I say go for it!"
Famous last words from my colleague and former Renesselaer Polytechnic Institute cheerleader Dr. Emily DeBoer who told me about a first time mother who was afraid to clean the vernix off of her daughter (vernix is that nasty wax-like substance that covers newborns after they're born) because she was afraid of hurting the baby. Emily, on the other hand, would not have a problem cleaning off the vernix of her non-existent daughter.
You ROCK Emily!!!
