Kate DeAraugo says everything changed when her gorgeous boy arrived 12 days past the due date, and was placed on her chest, leaving the two of them to gaze at each other in wonder.
"It's the most beautiful thing I've ever experienced in my life," an overjoyed Kate, 37, tells Woman's Day.
"It's something I couldn't have prepared myself for, or that anybody else could have prepared me for, but that moment they pass you this tiny, tiny human and they put him on your chest...
"It makes me nearly cry just thinking about it. It's all consuming and everything changed for me in that moment. It was a very beautiful moment."
