We're celebrating Father's Day by sharing your precious photographs of the moment you became a dad.
Everyone has that first photo cuddling their little bundle and we asked Manchester dads to share theirs with us as we celebrate this Sunday.
Whether your baby was born at home, in hospital or somewhere a little more unconventional, the moment you finally got to hold that baby in your arms is one you'll never forget.
We're grateful so many of you have shared your photos of that special time with us.
And many of you mums have praised your other halves for the support they gave during labour.
Natasha Rowarth sent in this photo and said: "My husband Jake Rowarth with our first little pudding 3 years ago. He was my rock during a tough labour.
"We’re due baby number two in four weeks and I wouldn’t have anyone else by my side."
Others shared the moment dads met their twins, or finally got to hold their little ones in intensive care.
Laura Hawcroft said: "Daddy Richard Hawcroft, from Manchester, holding our son Andrew when he was in St Mary's NICU (neo-natal intensive care unit)
"I think our son was 23 days old in this photo, he was born 11 weeks early at 1lb 6oz so an absolutely tiny miracle.
"I like this photo as it shows how small Andrew was, the smallest nappy is falling off him! Andrew has his 10th birthday this summer."
Here we share your daddy and baby snaps in our special Father's Day gallery.
If you have a photo to share then post it in the comments on our Facebook page, or our Manchester Family Facebook page.
