All your questions have been answered by our awesome board members so I'll leave that part alone.
Congratulations on expecting your first child! I have 7 girls and there is no experience in life that will ever rank above the birth of your children. A favorite saying of mine from Elizabeth Stone is "Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body".
Do yourself, your wife and your child a favor...........put the chewing tobacco out of your life.
Take care and please let us know what you find out.
