Boy did this bring the memories flooding back. You do a beautiful job here of supporting fathers-to-be in the dance they'll have to find their way through in the birth process. Though as you say, there are a million variables that could have their own process look a completely different way. I hope you keep cataloguing your reflections on the parenting journey, they are useful.
Congratulations! You're going to be a great dad :) It was one of the most amazing moments of my life as well.
Sounds like a great practice of patience, the long waiting while not having an active role as the others around you, Mazal tov! :)
